13.9 users were added, on average, each second.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a simple rule of three.

According to one report, about 1.2 million users of social media via mobile devices were added each day. How many users were added, on average, each second?

1.2 million users added each day

Each day has 24 hours

Each hour has 60 minutes

Each minute has 60 seconds

How many seconds are there in each day?

24*60*60 = 86400

Each day has 86400 seconds.

So, in 86400 seconds, 1.2 million = 1200000 users are added. How many are added, on average, each second?

86400 seconds - 1200000 users

1 seconds - x users

13.9 users were added, on average, each second.
