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 Sri Lanka can expect to live to 78.9 years compared to 71.9 in Tanzania, rising to 82.6 and 79.9 at 65, and to 87.9 and 87.3 at 80 — higher than the 78 and 67.6 years calculated at birth.

The chart above accounts for remaining lifespan and displays total life expectancy by age and gender in Sri Lanka and Tanzania.

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 Sri Lanka, the most common age of death is 85, compared to 0 in Tanzania. The median age of death is 81 in Sri Lanka and 72.6 in Tanzania, 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 Sri Lanka and Tanzania more than their death rates.
