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 Benin can expect to live to 70.5 years compared to 67.2 in the Central African Republic, rising to 78.4 and 77.9 at 65, and to 85.8 and 86.3 at 80 — higher than the 61.3 and 58.2 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Benin and the Central African Republic.

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 66.4% of newborns in Benin and 58.5% in the Central African Republic are expected to live past 60, 50.2% and 40.6% past 70, 24.8% and 19.6% past 80, and only 4.21% and 4.01% past 90.

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 Benin, the most common age of death is 0, compared to 0 in the Central African Republic. The median age of death is 70.1 in Benin and 65.2 in the Central African Republic, 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 Benin and the Central African Republic more than their death rates.
