A particular dam contains approximately 1,500,000,000,000 cubic feet of water. for a week long spike flood, water was released at a rate of 25,900 cubic feet per second. how much water was released during the flood?

what percentage of the dam was released during the flood?

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%
