How to use cluster and strata variables in ever married surveys? [message #21782]

Hi, I have a problem regarding all women factors in STATA. From the Page 1.43 of Guide to DHS Statistics DHS-7, the example shows that the mean number of children ever born for all women can be calculated by the following code:

gen awf = awfactt/100
ratio v201 / awf [iw=wt]

However, I am puzzled why the cluster and strata variables were not considered in the above code? If I would like to calculate the weighted prevalence of Y for example for women from an ever married survey, then what should I do to take cluster, strata, and awfactt variables into consideration together?

Thank you!
