Column b will be taken directly from Table 1. Calculate the age-adjusted rates: Add the expected deaths for each state, i.e. columns (c) and (e). Divide the total expected deaths in each state by the total standard population of the US.

Expected death = Age-specific death rate * Standard population
To get the age-adjusted rate per 1000 population, simply divide the total expected deaths by the total standard population and then multiply by 1000
Here,
Total expected deaths for Indiana = 2306658219
Total standard population = 260423572
Therefore, the age-adjusted death rate per 1000 for Indiana
And
Total expected deaths for Alaska =1972548533
Total standard population = 260423572
Therefore, the age-adjusted death rate per 1000 for Alaska
