I came across a visualization which shows the number of new cancer cases by country on the WHO website. Looking at the numbers, the first question that came to my mind was: do most cancer cases really happen in China or is it just that China is the most populated country? I thought using absolute numbers is a bit misleading in this case because countries don't have the same population size. So I was curious to see what the numbers would look like if we controlled the population size with a derived variable.

The data come as an Excel file that I have downloaded on the WHO-IARC website.
