Q. A swimming pool had 2.52.5 million liters of water in it. Some water evaporated, and then the pool only had 22 million liters of water in it. \newlineWhat percent of the water evaporated?\newline□\square %\%
  1. Calculate Evaporated Water: Calculate the amount of water that evaporated from the pool. 2.52.5 million liters - 22 million liters = 0.50.5 million liters evaporated.
  2. Find Percentage: Find the percentage of the water that evaporated.\newlinePercentage evaporated = (Amount evaporated/Original amount)×100%(\text{Amount evaporated} / \text{Original amount}) \times 100\%\newlinePercentage evaporated = (0.5 million/2.5 million)×100%(0.5 \text{ million} / 2.5 \text{ million}) \times 100\%
  3. Math Calculation: Do the math to get the percentage.\newlinePercentage evaporated = (0.5/2.5)×100%(0.5 / 2.5) \times 100\%\newlinePercentage evaporated = 0.2×100%0.2 \times 100\%\newlinePercentage evaporated = 20%20\%
