Question

An Olympic-sized swimming pool holds 2,500,000 liters of water. How many gallons of water does an Olympic-sized swimming pool hold? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

The Olympic sized swimming pool hold 660501.9 gallons of water.

Explanation:

Given that:

Water hold by an Olympic sized swimming pool = 2500000 liters

We know that;

1 gallon = 3.785 liters

Therefore,

We will divide the total number of water in liters by 3.785 to find the number of gallons.

Gallons of water in pool =
`(2500000)/(3.785)`

Gallons of water in pool =
`660501.9` gallons

Hence,

The Olympic sized swimming pool hold 660501.9 gallons of water.
