How many gallons of water are in the 5 oceans?

Answer 1

The Pacific Ocean is the largest of the world's five oceans. In descending order of size, the other 4 oceans are the Atlantic Ocean, Indian ocean, Southern Ocean, and Arctic Ocean.

According to various website sources:

The ocean covers 71 percent of the Earth's surface. The oceans hold 97 percent of the planet's water. This does not include seas, gulfs, bays, rivers, streams, and creeks.

The average depth of all oceans (combined for the average) is 12,200 feet (3,720 m). Scientists estimate there are over 332,519,000 cubic miles of water in the oceans.

Based on those figures, scientists calculate that there is enough water just in the oceans to fill about 352,670,000,000,000,000,000 gallon-sized containers!

The number 352,670,000,000,000,000,000 is written as three hundred fifty two quintillion, six hundred seventy quadrillion.
