Enter the total number of cases and the total population into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Cases Per Million. 

Cases Per Million Formula

CPM = C / P * 1,000,000

Variables:

  • CPM is the Cases Per Million (cases/million people)
  • C is the total number of cases
  • P is the total population

To calculate Cases Per Million, divide the number of cases by the total population, then multiply by 1,000,000.

How to Calculate Cases Per Million?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Cases Per Million.


  1. First, determine the total number of cases. 
  2. Next, determine the total population. 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = CPM = C / P * 1,000,000.
  4. Finally, calculate the Cases Per Million.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

total number of cases = 50

total population = 50000
