The total volume of water on Earth is estimated at 1.386 billion km³ (333 million cubic miles).
About 97.5% of water on Earth is salt water and 2.5% fresh water.
Of the 2.5% fresh water, only 0.3% is in liquid form on the surface.
Yes, approximately 97% of the Earth's water is salt water found in oceans and seas. The remaining 3% is freshwater found in rivers, lakes, and glaciers.
Approximately 97% of the world's water is salt water found in oceans and seas.
Less than 1 percent of Earth's water is ready for use by humans. Earth is approximately 71 percent water but of all this water only about 2.5 percent is fresh water with the rest being salt water and thus not fit for human consumption. Of the 2.5 percent fresh water the majority of this is frozen in the polar icecaps, present in soil moisture or deep underground where it is out of reach.
Roughly 97% of the total amount of water on Earth is salt water found in oceans and seas.
Approximately 97% of the earth's water is found in the ocean in the form of salt water. The remaining 3% is freshwater found in rivers, lakes, glaciers, and underground aquifers.
Only 2.5 percent of the earth is coverd in freash water the of is coverd in salt water(70%)
Approximately 97.5 percent of all the water on Earth is salt water. Of the remaining 2.5 percent that is fresh, about 70 percent exists as ice.
About 97% of the Earth's water is salt water found in oceans and seas.
2/3 of its surface is covered in salt water
About 70 percent of the Earth's surface is covered in water, and about 90 percent of that is salt water.
97%
The Earth's surface is covered by approximately 70 percent salt water. The remaining 30 percent consists of ice and land where a majority of the population exists.
Seventy one percent of earth's surface is water -- salt water. The ice sheet in Antarctica holds about seventy percent of earth's fresh water.
76 percent
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.
The fresh water better than the salt water because the salt water has salt and that's not good for the living things
Seventy two percent of the Earth's surface is salt water. No other planet besides Earth is known to have an ocean.
