[9] [notes 1] For the two-thirds to three-quarters of the population surviving the first year of life, [10] life expectancy at age 1 is estimated at around 34–41 remaining years (i.e. expected to live to age 35–42), while for the 55–65% surviving to age 5, life expectancy was around 40–45.

Life expectancy equals the average number of years a person born in a given country is expected to live if mortality ...
