An art teacher gives a total of 35 pounds of clay to her students. She gives each of her 16 students the same amount of clay. How many pounds of clay does each student get? Please write it as a fraction.

The answer is the third choice

Planet earth has a mass of 5.9726x10²⁴ kg.then: 5.9726x10²⁴ kg=100% of the total earth mass.if the water´s mass=5x10-4 % of the total mass, we can solve this problem by the rule of three.5.9726x10²⁴ %*10⁻⁴ %x=(5.9726x10²³ kg)(5*10⁻⁴  %) / 100 %=2.9863x10¹⁹ kganswer:   the mass of the planet´s water would be   2.9863 x 10¹⁹ kg.
