I'd have to know the methodology. If the determination of rape is "The woman said she was raped" then the problem is that women lie about rape constantly. It's what they do.
If, OTOH, the determination of rape = the actual conviction of the perp and sentencing to prison for rape then the incidence rate of pregnancy is probably less than .01% of abortions.

The much larger issue is incest. This is not forcible rape. This is sex between girl and dad and does involve pregnancy. It does happen a LOT more than you would think. It's not discussed because it is primarily an issue with a certain 'demographic'.

I had the same thoughts, and these numbers are based on reported cases of rape, from my understanding
