In science class, you learn that there are approximately 4.158 x 10^7 km^3—or 4.158 x 10^(19) L—of fresh water on Earth. You also learn that there are approximately 6.7 billion people living on Earth. According to a classmate, this works out to approximately 6.21 x 10^9 L of fresh water for each person on Earth.
Your classmate concludes that reports of water shortages in various parts of the world must be exaggerated.
