If both the child and elderly shares are low, which group is likely to be relatively large?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Working-age group

A population can be divided broadly into children, working-age people, and older people. If the shares of both children and the elderly are small, the remaining share must be concentrated mainly in the working-age group, assuming these categories cover the population. In the stated classification, children are approximately ages 0–14, working-age people 15–59, and older people 60 and above.

This type of age structure means that a relatively large proportion of people can potentially participate in production and employment, while fewer people are dependent because of young or old age. It may create an opportunity for a demographic dividend if jobs, education, health, and skills are available. Therefore, option A, the working-age group, is the best answer. The other choices describe only one small age group or deny the existence of an age structure.
