If ages 0 to 14 form 20 percent, ages 15 to 59 form 70 percent, and ages 60 and above form 10 percent, which situation is most likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Large working-age share

The age distribution shows that 20 percent of the population is aged 0–14, 70 percent is aged 15–59, and 10 percent is aged 60 or above. The 15–59 group is therefore the largest by far. It represents a large working-age share, which may create opportunities for economic production and a demographic dividend if people can obtain education, skills, health, and employment.

Option B is correct because the working-age group accounts for 70 percent. High child dependency would require a much larger proportion of children relative to working-age people, while elderly dominance would require a much larger older population. A very small working-age population is clearly inconsistent with 70 percent. The figures describe the age composition, not automatically the employment rate or guaranteed economic success; those depend on suitable policies and opportunities.
