While the oceans cover about 70% of the surface area, they actually hold 96.5% of all the water on Earth. Another 1% of the ground water of the Earth is saline.
Salt water accounts for 97.5% of all water, leaving only 2.5% fresh water. Of the 2.5% fresh, most of it is frozen in glaciers or snow and less than 1% exists in liquid form. Almost all of that fresh water is ground water with only a tiny bit in lakes and streams.

There is also some contained in trees and vegetation, but figures are not easily available.So the Oceans are about 97% of the total water.
