how do i calculate the total number of summits, deaths, and summit-to-death ratio at the bottom of the table.
Answered by Ms. Sue
I assume you have the number of summits and the number of deaths for each year.

If, for instance there were 10 summits and 1 death in year x, then your ratio is 10 to 1.
