I am using the women individual recode and the and the variable I am examining is abortion (q207c ). From the simple frequency tabulation I did in stata, result showed that abortion is 14.77% against the 10% reported on page in the document I attached. My question here: is it safe to report 14.8% as the rate of abortion among 15-49 years women in Ghana or is there a further data manipulation that I can do to arrive at 10% in the report attached in this email?

Thank you
