i'm not really understanding my textbook right now

anonymous · Answer

Birth rate is always measured per 1000 inhabitants. So, you'd find the total population of the country and divide it by 1000 and write it down.

anonymous · Answer

That number is x . If you wanted the birth rate you'd get the total number of births then divide it by X.
