Hi there!

Answer:

If the pool is only 80% full, its volume would be 20,000L³.


Explanation:

In order to answer your question, you'll need to find what 80% of 25,00L³ is equal to.

"80%" is the same thing as 80 ÷ 100, which is equal to : 0.8

The word "of" is the same thing as a multiplication sign.

SO, 80% of 25,000 = 0.8 × 25,000


0.8 × 25,000 = 20,000


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
