Question

Internetlivestats.com reported in December 2017 around 41% of the world population has an Internet connection today. If there are

3,062,263,517 users, what is the world population? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answer 1

World population = 7,468,935,407

Explanation:

Given that:

Percent of people who have internet connection = 41%

Number of people who have internet connection = 3,062,263,517

Let,

x be the world population.

41% of x = 3062263517

`(41)/(100)x=3062263517\\`

0.41x = 3062263517

Dividing both sides by 0.41

`(0.41x)/(0.41)=(3062263517)/(0.41)\\x=7468935407`

Hence,

World population = 7,468,935,407
