Answer:

Lake Carters, Lake Amistad, Lake Alamo

Explanation:

Starting with lake Alamo:

current level: 1,080

Full pool: -48.5

This indicates that the level is currently 48.5 feet below a full pool

Therefore, the level of it as a full pool is 1,080 + 48.5, or 1,128.5 feet

Lake Amistad:

Current Level: 1,038

Full pool: -7.1%

This indicates that the level is currently 7.1% below a full pool

subtract 7.1% from 100%

100-7.1=92.9

Percent formula:

P% * X = Y

P = 92.9

Y = 1038

X = 1038 / 92.9%

X = 1117.33

Full pool = 1117.33

Lake Carters

Current level: 1078

Full pool: + 60/13

This indicates that the level is currently 60/13 above a full pool

60/13 = 4.62

1078 - 4.62 = 1073.38

full pool = 1073.38

So, the order is Lake Carters, Lake Amistad, Lake Alamo
