    Step-by-step explanation:

    consider the amount of water present in the pond initially as 'x'.

    so,

    x - (x*25/100) = 1650 litres

    x - 25x/100 = 1650 litres

    (take LCM and add)

    100x/100 - 25x/100 = 1650 litres

    75x/100 = 1650 litres

    75x = 1650*100 litres

    x = 165000/75

    = 2200 litres

    therefore, there was initially 2200 litres of water in the pond.
