Reflection
I was really surprised that the percentage of the earths salt water was 97.24 percent because when I was predicting I said that the percentages would be 40% and I was way off. I really liked doing this experiment today because it was really interesting to see all of this cool information. The real percentage of the earths fresh water is 2.761% I thought that his was crazy because I said the percentage of the fresh water in the world was 60% and I was way off on that one too.
