Currently I am struggling with this exercise and I would HUGELY appreciate if someone explain to me how to do it (and have the answer for me to double check it). So I figured out that you cannot split the '_3.75p_62.75' into amount of lives at 66.5 divided by amount of lives at 62.75 and have these lives written in survival probabilities, because the currently aged probability are not the same.
In order to tackle the problem, I looked at the complement of '_3.75p_62.75', which is '_3.75q_62.75'. I imagine that you need to split this probability in two parts (which looks like a weighted average if that makes sense). Then the equation needs to be solved for the part with a 2 year survival probability for current person that is 66 years old. However, the problem is that I'm unable to split it in such a way that you avoid probabilities of individual living just 1 year. I want to avoid that, because those probabilities are simply not given. How should I do this?
