Roughly 50% sodium and 50% chloride
The percentage of salt in the sea is 3.5%
98% of all water
3.5 percent salt and 97.5 is water.

71%
97% of the worlds water is Salt water. 71% of the world is Covered by Saltwater.
The greatest percentage of salt is extracted from mines. You get sea water and put it in a evaporating dish. Then evaporate the water and then there is salt left.
Well that depends on how much salt and how much water you have and what you want to accomplish by mixing them.
about 70 percent of water covers the world

Around 3% or slightly more.
