The state population in the past year was 20 million. Live births in the same year totaled 400,000. Infant deaths in that year were 5,000. Calculate the infant mortality rate for the year.

12.5 infant deaths per 1,000 livebirths

Explanation:

Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) refers to the number of newborns under 1 year of age dying in a specific geographic location divided by the total number of livebirths in that same location and calendar year multiplied by 1,000. This is considered an important indicator in concluding an area's quality of life.

The formula is: x 1,000

x 1,000 = 12.5

Therefore, there are 12.5 infant deaths per 1,000 livebirths.
