75% of the human's body is water

The Human Body is made up of 57% water. This leaves 43% remaining for other material. The water in the body consists of 2 main sources: Intracellular fluid (2/3rd of all body water) and Extracellular fluid (1/3rd of all body water).

The answer before mine was 75%, that probably comes from a misunderstanding that 75 percent of all water is extracellular.

Typically. this means that an average male weight male of 160 lbs carries 91.20lbs of body water.

[Edit]

To be more specific on both of these answers, the human body has been shown to contain up to an estimated 60% water1.

1. Total body water volumes for adult males and females estimated from simple anthropometric measurements (Watson et al 1980)
