The prison rate is calculated by dividing the number of incarcerated individuals by the total population, then multiplying the result by 100,000 to express it per 100,000 people. The formula is:

[ \text{Prison Rate} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of Prisoners}}{\text{Total Population}} \right) \times 100,000. ]

This metric helps to compare incarceration rates across different populations or regions.
