The correct answer is A. Between 0 and 1
This is because in standard mortality ratio the numerator is number of deaths that has occurred. The expected death number is in the denominator. When the deaths that has occurred is fewer than the expected number, the value of numerator will be less than the value of denominator.
In mathematics, the ratio with numerator larger than the denominator will always be greater than 1. The ratio with numerator smaller than the denominator will be less than 1 but greater than 0.
So in the given condition, the value is between 0 and 1.

Part 5 of 19 - 5 Question 5 of 30 1.0 Points In an industrialized nation, there were 192 deaths due to lung diseases in miners ages 20 to 64 years. The expected number of deaths in this occupational group, based on age-specific death rates for lung diseases in all males ages 20 to 64 years, was 238 during 1990. What was the standardized mortality ratio (SMR) for lung diseases in miners? • O A. 100% • O B 250%...
Question 35 1 pts Suppose that you use indirect age adjustment comparing the U.S. to Canada using mortality rates in the United Kingdom as the standard. You get 24,000,000 expected deaths in the United States and 2,720,000 expected deaths in Canada. Actual death rates are 22,000,000 for the U.S. and 3,000,000 for Canada. What is the Standardized Mortality Ratio (SMR) for Canada? 90.6 110.3 O 88.2 73.3 91.7 Question 36 1 pts Suppose that you use indirect age adjustment comparing...

Question: According
to a census data (1970), 4,648,377 persons lived in a rural town in
West Malaysia. During the same year, census data showed that
3,409,169 persons were residing in Washington State, U.S.A., a
predominantly industrialized society. Mortality data indicated the
age-specific death rates for Malays in West Malaysia exceeded those
for residents of Washington State for every age group by
substantial margin. Yet the overall crude death rate for
Washingtonians exceeded that for Malays (8.8...
