The graph below shows the proportion of the population aged 65 and over between 1940 and 2040 in three different countries. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main feature and make comparisons where relevant.
The graph compares percentages of population of people with the age of 65 and over in Japan, Sweden, and the USA between 1940 and 2040. It can be clearly seen that there are upward trends in the number of people in all of the countries during that period.
As we can see, the proportion of elderly people was the highest in the USA with 8%, and the least in Japan, which was %5 of all the Japanese population, in 1940.
On the other hand, in the next century (2040), it is predicted that the proportion of elderly people in the USA will reversely be the least, with 23% of the total population, and Japan will the country with the highest population of senior people. Sweden stood at the middle in both 1940 and 2040 with the population of people aged 65 and over of 7% and 25% respectively.
In conclusion, the percentages of people in the age range in these three countries are significantly rising from 1940 to 2040.

PERSONAL ADVICE:
"with 65 age" is wrong -> "with the age of 65 and over."
"in 3 Asian, European, and American (Japan, Sweden, and USA respectively)" is wrong.
We can understand you wanted to say the continents in which the countries are located but it's not what people normally use.
"this years" is wrong: this is for singular nouns and "years" is plural.
"upward trends in changes of the number" is repeating the idea
"upward trends" already means changes
then you use "in changes" -> wrong.
the people are ... : when you are giving definition but actually you mean the proportion.
you were talking about 1940 so you shouldn't have used "are".
You should use one of them not both.
"will the least" is wrong: after "will", you should use a bare infinitive. For example: you will be my best friend.
You should have used "the USA" instead of only "USA".
"with the 23%" is wrong
with 23% of the total population.
if you want to use "in" after "both", you should write "both in 1940 and in 2040".
or you can write: "in both 1940 and 2040".
"the amount" is only used for uncountable nouns such as water or sugar.
"individuals" is a countable word here.
"they are increasing from the least to the most in Japan" is not correct.
"the most" should be accompanied by an adjective normally.
You should use less parentheses.
The following line graph report presents statistics regarding the population of
elderly between ten-decade periods in the USA, Sweden and Japan.
What becomes readily apparent is that the number of older people fluctuate
differently, with Sweden steadily rising, Japan increasing sharply by 2030,
USA falling to become the second highest by 1995. Overall, prognostications suggest
that by 2040 Japan will overtake the other countries in terms of elderly.
Analyzing the specific categories first reveals that USA garnered roughly 5%,
and after a 1980 slight downward trend, futurist project approximately 23%
in 2040. With Sweden, after a two gentle dropping in 1980 and 2012,
predictions suggest a considerable growth between 2025 and 2040. Next of note,
Japan hitted the lowest point from 1960 to 1985, and forecasts a significant
increase from 2030 to 2040.
The main thing that can be observed here is that Japan has a dramatically
surge than other two countries in later decades.
