With the members of your group, write a list of questions about the people in the world. Your questions should begin with “How many people in the world . . . ?”

Suppose your class represents all the people in the world.

Choose 3–4 of your questions about the world’s population to investigate. For each question:

• Research: Find out how many people in the world share the characteristic you chose.
• Calculate: If your class were the world, how many students would have the characteristic?

Use the tables to help you organize your work:
