INTERESTING NUMBERS

 SomeVery interesting numbers, simply put......

The current population of Earth is more than 7 Billion.

The statistics can tell us the numbers, the distribution, various races and other information of the population.

As the population is so large, a purely statistical report, for most people, would not make meaningful sense. Therefore, someone has produced this set of statistical report condensing the 7 billion in the world into 100 persons, and then into various percentage statistics. The resulting analysis is relatively much easier to comprehend.

Out of 100:

11 are in Europe

5 are in North America

9 are in South America

15 are in Africa

60 are in Asia

49 live in the countryside

51 live in cities
