b. 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden.
c. 0.65% of the world's population lives in Europe.
d. 13% of the world's population lives in Europe.

Answer 1

To find the percentage of the world's population that lives in Europe, divide the percentage of Europe's population living in Sweden by the percentage of the world's population living in Sweden. The correct answer is d. 13% of the world's population lives in Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage of the world's population that lives in Europe, we can use the information provided. We know that 1.3‰ (per thousand) of the world's population lives in Sweden, and 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden. We want to find the percentage of the world's population that lives in Europe.

Let's assume that the world's population is 100%. If 1.3‰ of the world's population lives in Sweden, that means 0.0013 * 100% = 0.13% of the world's population lives in Sweden.

If 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden, that means 0.013 * 100% = 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden.

Since 0.13% of the world's population lives in Sweden, and 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden, we can calculate the percentage of the world's population that lives in Europe by dividing the percentage of Europe's population living in Sweden by the percentage of the world's population living in Sweden: (1.3% / 0.13%) * 0.13% = 1.3%.

Therefore, the correct answer is d. 13% of the world's population lives in Europe.

Answer 2

The percent of the world's population lives in Europe is c. 0.65% of the world's population lives in Europe.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided states that 1.3‰ (per mille) of the world's population lives in Sweden, and 1.3% of Europe's population lives in Sweden. To find the percentage of the world's population living in Europe, we need to consider the relative proportions of Sweden's population within both the world and Europe.

If 1.3‰ of the world's population is in Sweden, and 1.3% of Europe's population is also in Sweden, it implies that Europe's population is larger than Sweden's population. Therefore, the percentage of the world's population living in Europe is less than 1.3%, leading to the correct answer, option c.
