During the summer, 1. 3% of the water in the kiddie pool evaporates every day. If the kiddie pool holds 8,000 gallons of water and is not refilled for 10 days, how many gallons of water will be in the pool?

Respuesta :

The number of gallons of water that is remaining in the kiddie pool after 10 days is 6960 gallons .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

the total amount of water present in the kiddie pool is = 8000 gallons

we have to find the amount of water that will remain in the pool after 10 days .

the percent of water that evaporates every day = 1.3% ,

the percent of water that will evaporate in 10 days = 1.3×10 = 13%

the amount of water evaporated in 10 days = 13% of 8000

= 0.13 × 8000

= 1040 gallons

So , the amount of water remaining in the kiddie pool = 8000 - 1040

= 6960 gallons .

Therefore  , The number of gallons of water that is remaining in the kiddie pool is 6960 gallons .
