Could somebody explain the difference between leading cause of death and rates of death,please ?
>65 rate of death due to unintendet injury is highest but unintended injury is leading cause of death for age 1-34 ???

here the percentage of death due to unintended injury is the highest..

Unintended injury is the leading cause of death in that age group.

One is telling you the percentage of deaths the other is pointing to the cause of deaths.

I hope that makes some sense.Good luck.
