The line graph illustrates the percentage of people who were more than 65 years old in three various countries over the course of the century, starting in 1940.


Looking at the graph, it is immediately obvious that the proportion of elderly experienced an upward trend over the period. The Japanese elderly rate is predicted to have the most significant change at that time.


The ration of Americans who were older than 65 years of age stood at nearly one-tenth in the beginning. This figure rose gradually before decreasing slightly from 1980 to 2020. However, the rate is expected to ascend rapidly at the end, peaking at nearly 25% in 2040. A similar trend was seen in Sweden. The proportion is speculated to have a gradual increase from approximately 7% to merely more than a quarter at the end of the period.


The Japanese elder percentage underwent a slight dip between 1960 and 2000, which was also the lowest number of all categories. Despite the low rate, the Japanese elderly portion is predicted to grow dramatically from 2020 to 2040 and reach the highest point of 27% at the end, which surpass the USA as well as Sweden.
