Hi,

I am trying to look at the number of women who were married before the age of 18 in Kenya - to understand child marriage. I saw in DHS 2014 report that 23% of women were married before the age of 18 - but there's also a column of 'number of respondents' - what does this mean? As in 23% of women aged 15-49 were married before the age of 18? If so, then the ,number of respondents, should be the total number of 15-49 year old women who were interviewed right? But it's much lower
