    We need to start by finding the surface area of the pool.

    50 meters multiplied by 25 meters gives us 1250 square meters.

    1250 square meters multiplied by. 065 (6.5 cm in meters) gives us a volume of 81.25 cubic meters of water that needs to be pumped out of the pool.

    There are 1000 liters in a cubic meter so this is 81250 liters. Divide by 4.2 to find the number of seconds required to pump out this much water and we get 19345.2 seconds. This equals approximately 5.37 hours.
