As of 2008 the worlds population was about 6.7 billion people. The population of the United States in 2008 was 305 million. In 2008 what percent of the world’s population was the US population?

In 2008 the US population was 4.55% of the world population.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the percent of the world population that represents the US population, we can apply a rule of three in such a way that the world population is related to 100% in the same proportion that the US population is related to x%. We then solve for x. This is shown below:

6.7*10^9 -> 100%

305*10^6 -> x%

6.7*10^9 / 305*10 ^6 = 100 / x

6.7*10^3 / 305 = 100 / x

(6.7*10^3)*x = 305*100

x = 30500 / (6.7*10^3)

x = 4,55 %

In 2008 the US population was 4.55% of the world population.
