Life expectancy is often mistaken for the average lifespan of an adult. However, an adult has already survived the causes of early-age mortality and can expect to live longer than the figure calculated at birth.

A 30-year-old in Australia can expect to live to 84.9 years compared to 72 in Ghana, rising to 87.2 and 79.1 at 65, and to 90.3 and 86.1 at 80 — higher than the 84.3 and 66.1 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Australia and Ghana.

This chart shows the number of deaths by age up to 100 for 3 cohorts of 100,000 newborns each — male, female, and both combined — illustrating how expected mortality is distributed throughout life.

In Australia, the most common age of death is 91, compared to 79 in Ghana. The median age of death is 87.5 in Australia and 73 in Ghana, meaning only half of each cohort is expected to live past that age.

Note that this chart does not show rates per 100,000 population, as those would be skewed by age structure differences and reflect the demographics of Australia and Ghana more than their death rates.
