If we herded them to Africa, would they sweat off more than the benefit on the way?
Please answer either A: or B: in case I get confused between 0.0003% and yes.

A. How many cows would it take to displace all our oceans? Divide by 0.8 and take the reciprocal.

B. What have you got against cows, anyway? That's to say nothing of the African animals.

Despite your poorly worded question, and glaring immaturity, I will answer your question. Firstly allow for calorific input (if any) into the bovine, water retention from ingested food is an important factor. Temperature, respiration, urination and defecation are also factors to be considered. The body weight of the animal is not mentioned, therefore water as a percentage of bodyweight cannot be calculated . That is as far as I need to go, you have science homework to do.

Difficult to answer because there are many variables to consider e.g. her mass, the water content of the food she is eating, whether she is dehydrated or not, whether she has just emptied her bladder &/or bowel, whether she has just been milked...etc. Whatever figure someone comes up with can only be an estimate based on the average cow.

B 3.76 X 10 to -89 % for an average size cow.

The correct answer is 0.0000000000000000238095%.

You derive the answer by taking 300 dividing it by
1260000000000000000000 and then multiplying it by 100 to obtain the percentage.

this is known as a 'Fermi' question (after the Italian physicist). You can get a fairly accurate answer by making intelligent estimates. 70% Earth's surface= water. Radius Earth =6.4x10^3km.Average ocean depth=10km. Mass of ave cow=1000kg. %body mass water=about 80(?).Density of water= 1000kg/m3. Sooo! 2.81^14kg=mass of planets water..800kg=mass of cow's water..%=3^-10 approx sans calculator
