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 the Gambia can expect to live to 72.4 years compared to 76.6 in North Korea, rising to 79.2 and 81 at 65, and to 86.1 and 86.8 at 80 — higher than the 66.5 and 74 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in the Gambia and North Korea.

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 74% of newborns in the Gambia and 85.5% in North Korea are expected to live past 60, 58.1% and 72.7% past 70, 30.9% and 44.8% past 80, and only 5.9% and 10.6% 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 the Gambia, the most common age of death is 80, compared to 82 in North Korea. The median age of death is 73.4 in the Gambia and 78.5 in North Korea, 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 the Gambia and North Korea more than their death rates.
