There is no answer to that, because it varies all around the world. So the amount of daylight on a given day in one part of the world, isn't the same in all other parts of the world. In the middle of the northern hemisphere's winter there is no daylight at the North Pole, but there is more and more as you head south ending in there being 24 hours of daylight at the South Pole, where it is the middle of summer. You can also say that there is always daylight somewhere in the world, and therefore there is permanent daylight on Earth, so there is 24 hours of daylight every day.

What part of the world is in daylight?

If your time is roughly between 6am and 6pm then your part of the world is in daylight. The part that is not having night. The earth revolves on its North Pole - South Pole axis once every 24 hours. As it moves around, the sun is able to shine on one half of it at a time. The earth is moving all the time, so the part of the world in daylight is also moving all the time/
