Question

HElp-

The dimensions of a rectangular pool are 26.5 feet by 14 feet. The depth of the water when full is 5 feet. Each cubic foot contains 7.48 gallons of water.
How many gallons of water, to the nearest tenth, are needed to fill the pool to 80% capacity?

Answer 1

I also agree, 11100.3 gallons :)

Answer 2

Explanation:

Do 26.5 x 14 x 5 to get 1855

Then, do 1855 x 7.48 to get 13875.4

To get your percent do 13875.4 x 0.80

So, it’s 11100.32, if rounded 11100.3
