    Total released water = 15,664,310,000 cubic feet

    Total % of released water = 1.04%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Water capacity = 1,500,000,000,000 cubic feet

    Total seconds in a week = 7 * 24 * 60 * 60

    Per seconds release amount = 25,900 cubic feet

    Computation:

    Total released water = 25,900 * 7 * 24 * 60 * 60

    Total released water = 15,664,310,000 cubic feet

    Total % of released water = 15,664,310,000 cubic feet / 1,500,000,000,000

    Total % of released water = 0.0144

    Total % of released water = 1.04%
