The first pie chart compares the shares of four major items in global expenditure. It is observed that the most significant amounts are paid for food (almost a quarter of global expenditure) and transport (almost 20%), while housing also accounts for a considerable proportion. The least among the four is spent on clothing (merely 6 percent) and the remaining 40% is spent on a variety of other items.
The second diagram illustrates how global population is distributed. According to this chart, there is a significant difference between the population of Asia and that of other continents since 3 out of every 5 human beings live in Asia. Europe and the Americas share similar proportions and together are host to roughly one-third of the world’s population, while the inhabitants of Africa form a mere one-tenth.
To sum up, four items are responsible for three-fifths of the overall spending around the world, the most prominent share being that of food. Moreover, the largest group of humans populates Asia.
