Answer:

558.036 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is the amount of the sea water to collect 125 lb of sea salt

As given: 64 lb/ft³ has 0.0035 dissolved salt by weight

So the formula to find out the amount of the sea water is:

64 lb/ft³ * 0.0035 *x ft³  = 125 lb

<=> x = \frac{125}{64*0.035} = 558.036 lb

Hope it will find you well.
