Answer:

becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean

Step-by-step explanation:

Precipitation refers to rainfall that reaches the earth.

Most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean.

When the rain falls on earth, some evaporates, some enters into the ground while some runs off into rivers and streams. Almost all of the rain water flows into the oceans or other bodies of water.

Hence, most of the rainfall that reaches the earth becomes runoff and finds its way back to the ocean
