Approximately 67.8% of earth's surface is covered by salt water while only 3% is covered by fresh water. In total, the earth's surface is covered by 70.8% of water.
3% of the earths water is freshwater.
3% is fresh, but 1% is for drinking.
3% of the world is made of fresh water
The total volume of water on Earth is about 1.4 billion cubic kilometers, around 41 million of which is fresh water. 3 percent of the world's water is fresh, however only 0.768% is usable for consumption. The remaining portion of fresh water is locked up in glaciers, permanent snow fields, the Arctic, Antarctica, the atmosphere, living organisms (plants and animals) or is polluted. As well, there is 97% salt water located on Earth; and through human activities this is limiting the supply of safe drinking water! We need to sustain our water supply for further/future generations.
3%
75 percent of earth is water. 3 percent of that is fresh water.
only 1% of all the water on earth can living creatures drink. Only about 3% of earths water is fresh water at all!!!!
Read your question one more time and then think about it. It's 3%
for a human. the human supply water usage is 3%. ONLY 3 PERCENT IS DRINKABLE TO HUMANS
3 percent is useable to humans and land animals
only about 3 % is fresh water and less than 1 percent of that is available the rest is frozen in glaciers etc
97% of Earth's water comes from the oceans, which contain saltwater. Only about 3% of Earth's water is freshwater, found in sources such as rivers, lakes, and groundwater.
the majority of the world water is salt water, and about 3% of the worlds water is fresh but 2% of that water is glaciers. so that leaves only 1% of the worlds water supply
no it is actually found in the hydrosphere where it has all of the oceans and lakes
Approximately 67.8% of earth's surface is covered by salt water while only 3% is covered by fresh water. In total, the earth's surface is covered by 70.8% of water.
Technically, none of it. The hydrosphere is the liquid water on Earth. The Cryosphere is the ice. However, only 3 percent of the water on Earth is fresh, 97 % is salt water. Of that 3 % frsh water, 85 % is frozen so 85% of 3% of the water is frozen. So, 2.55% of Earths water is frozen.
