Explanation:

Historically, in the 19th to mid - 20th century, life expectancies in many African countries like Mali were low due to factors like poor healthcare, nutrition, and high infant mortality. 26 years aligns with the low life expectancy of that era, while 55, 56, and 81 are too high for that time and region.
