Answer:

less than 1%

Step-by-step explanation:

The approximate percentage of the geologic time that humans have existed on the Earth since its origin is less than 1%.

The earth is about 4.6 billion years and much of its history has been without the present of human activities.

  • Hominis were the first human to appear on the surface of the earth.
  • This was in the Miocene epoch which was about 6 million years ago.
  • Compared to the age of the earth, this time lapse is very small and not up to 1%.
  • Life first appeared on earth about 3.5billion years.
  • Since then evolution has taken its due course to give what we have today.
