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 Denmark can expect to live to 82.9 years compared to 85.6 in Japan, rising to 85.4 and 87.8 at 65, and to 89.4 and 91.1 at 80 — higher than the 82.4 and 85.1 years calculated at birth.

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

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 94.3% of newborns in Denmark and 95.1% in Japan are expected to live past 60, 85.6% and 88.9% past 70, 67.4% and 75% past 80, and only 29.6% and 41.7% 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 Denmark, the most common age of death is 88, compared to 91 in Japan. The median age of death is 85.2 in Denmark and 88.1 in Japan, 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 Denmark and Japan more than their death rates.
