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 Malawi can expect to live to 72.1 years compared to 71.8 in Niger, rising to 79.2 and 78 at 65, and to 86.5 and 85 at 80 — higher than the 67.9 and 61.9 years calculated at birth.

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

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 75.4% of newborns in Malawi and 70.2% in Niger are expected to live past 60, 57.7% and 54.2% past 70, 30.6% and 25.2% past 80, and only 6.79% and 2.71% 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 Malawi, the most common age of death is 78, compared to 0 in Niger. The median age of death is 73.1 in Malawi and 71.7 in Niger, 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 Malawi and Niger more than their death rates.
