Pie Chart 3: Drinking Water Services (of 7.8 Billion People)
1 answer:
Answer:
access to safe drinking water is a fundamental need and human right. Securing access for all would go a long way in reducing illness and death, especially among children. “Safely managed” drinking water services represent an ambitious new rung on the ladder used to track progress on drinking water. Since 2000, 2 billion people have gained access to safely managed services (i.e., accessible on-premises, available when needed, and free from contamination). In 2020, 5.8 billion people used safely managed services and a further 2 billion people used basic services ( improved sources within 30 minutes per round trip to collect water).
However, 771 million people still lacked even a basic level of service, including 282 who used a “limited” water service (improved source from which water collection exceeds 30 minutes), 367 million who used unimproved sources and 122 million who still collected drinking water directly from rivers, lakes, and other surface water sources. The data reveal pronounced disparities, with the poorest and those living in rural areas least likely to use a basic service. In most countries, the burden of water collection continues to fall mainly to women and girls.

We are told that the children from a football club are put into rows in the sports hall. When put into rows of 9 children there are 2 children left over. When put into rows of 12 children there are 2 children left over.
We will find least number of children in football club by finding LCM of 9 and 12.
Multiples of 9 are: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63,...
Multiples of 12 are: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84,...
We can see that least common multiple of 9 and 12 is 36.
We are told that 2 children left over from putting them into 9 and 12 children per row. To find least number we will add 2 to 36.
Therefore, the least number of children in the football club is 38.
