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 Rwanda can expect to live to 72.3 years compared to 71.9 in Zambia, rising to 79.1 and 77.9 at 65, and to 86.3 and 85.3 at 80 — higher than the 68.5 and 66.9 years calculated at birth.

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

This chart shows the odds of living to each age from birth. 76.6% of newborns in Rwanda and 76.5% in Zambia are expected to live past 60, 59% and 59% past 70, 30.9% and 26.3% past 80, and only 6.34% and 3.69% past 90.

For longevity rates starting from a different age, use the calculator provided above.

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 Rwanda, the most common age of death is 78, compared to 0 in Zambia. The median age of death is 73.5 in Rwanda and 73.1 in Zambia, 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 Rwanda and Zambia more than their death rates.
