As shown on the infographic above, of the world population of 7.83 billion people, two thirds (5.22 billion people) have at least one mobile phone, 4.66 billion (59.5%) are internet users, and 4.20 billion (53.6%) are active social media users. It is important to note that these three figures are independent - the fact that 4.66 billion people are internet users doesn't mean all 4.66 billion are mobile phone users. Same applies for social media users, although to be a social media user it can be assumed that one has to have access to the internet, but the internet doesn't have to be accessed through a mobile phone.
The two infographics below provide a more specific look into the first figures, this time in the domain of two countries: United Kingdom (UK) and Turkey. Although Turkey has more people with mobile connections, more internet users, and more active social media users, what's important here are the percentages.
