उत्तर
Approximately water on earth which is not fit for drinking = 97.3%
(i) Water fit for drinking = 100 – 97.3 = 2.7%
(ii) At a certain place, the water which is fit for drinking = 21600 m3
The volume of the total water on that place
= `21600xx100/2.7"m"^3`
= `(21600xx100xx10)/27`
= 800 × 1000
= 8,00,000 m3
