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 Botswana can expect to live to 73.5 years compared to 80.2 in China, rising to 79.9 and 83.3 at 65, and to 87.2 and 88.1 at 80 — higher than the 69.6 and 79 years calculated at birth.

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

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 78.2% of newborns in Botswana and 91.5% in China are expected to live past 60, 61% and 80.9% past 70, 34.2% and 57.8% past 80, and only 9.24% and 20.2% 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 Botswana, the most common age of death is 79, compared to 85 in China. The median age of death is 74.4 in Botswana and 82.3 in China, 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 Botswana and China more than their death rates.
