90? These have to be government NHS statistics, which bear no relation to the real world. ;)

a better way of looking at it might be:
99.6% of 25 year-olds reach 26.
99.3% of 26 year-olds reach 27 and so on
for each year, those who die are not included in the new statistic.
73.8% of 64 year-olds reach 65


so at what age do more people die than see their next birthday.

Apologies for the somewhat delayed question, todays work has prevented me spending the afternoon at my desk.

Just a quick one to keep the quiz going. It's a very lazy attempt but may yet prove to be a decent poser.

:? : I haven't been about much to use my points in the shop or for games yet my account has continued to accrue interest from the bank. How many points do I currently have available to withdraw from the Fruitchat bank?
