To determine the percentage of all Americans who are younger than 65 years old, we need to sum the number of individuals in the 0-14 years and 15-64 years categories.
0-14 years: 18
15-64 years: 65
Total individuals younger than 65 years old: 18 + 65 = 83
Now, we need to calculate the percentage of 83 out of the total number of individuals (18 + 65 + 17 = 100).
Percentage of Americans younger than 65 years old: (83/100) x 100% = 83%
Therefore, 83% of all Americans are younger than 65 years old.
