It is already given that the population of the world in the year 2002 was estimated to about 6 billion. Among them 20% of the people lived on an an income of less that $1 per day.

    6 billion = 6000000000

    Now

    Number of people earning less that $1 per day = (20/100) * 6000000000

    = 6000000000/5

    = 1200000000

    So the number of people earning less than $1 per day is 1200000000
