Explanation:
The table is showing us the population of the United States by age groups. In this way, we can see the number and percentage of people living in the United States by their age group. We can see that the largest age group is the one from 25 to 44 years of age, followed by age group of 45 to 64 years of age. As in lot of developed countries, the population over 65 is larger then the young adults between 18 and 24, and that is mostly because of the low birth rates, but high life expectancy.
