Answer 2

Answer:

The global share of people in extreme poverty – those living on less than $1.90 a day[1] – has decreased consistently since 1990, when it included over 35% of the world population, to less than 10% in 2015.[2]

The number of people living in poverty as measured by the higher international poverty lines of $3.20 and $5.50[3] increased between 1990 and 1999, but has fallen since then. In 2015, over one-fifth of the global population lived below $3.20 and almost a half lived below $5.50 a day.
