Which Ocean Is Bigger

The Pacific Ocean encompasses a third of the Earth's surface, having an area of 179.7 million square kilometres (69.4 million sq mi and 161 million cubic mi) —significantly larger than Earth's entire landmass...
Covering approximately 20% of Earth's surface, the Atlantic Ocean is second only to the Pacific in size. With its adjacent seas it occupies an area of about 106,400,000 square kilometres (41,100,000 sq mi); without them, it has an area of 82,400,000 square kilometres (31,800,000 sq mi).
therefore, the pacific ocean is larger than the atlantic ocean , and the largest among all oceans...

Pacific Ocean is the biggest - it encompasses a third of the earth surface / twice the size of Atlantic
Atlantic is the second - covering approximately one-fifth of the earth's surface
-The Pacific Ocean is currently shrinking due to plate tectonics, while the Atlantic Ocean is increasing in size.
