Answer:
Current water in dam = 1,676.202 million m³ (Approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Storage capacity of dam = 2,536 million m³
Current water level = 65.4%
Find:
Current water in dam
Computation:
Current water in dam = Storage capacity of dam x Current water level
Current water in dam = 2,563 x 65.4%
Current water in dam = 1,676.202 million m³ (Approx.)
If you want to increase something by 3%, you would ADD 100% to it, so:
3% + 100% = 103%
Then you divide it by 100 to turn it into a decimal, so:
103% / 100 = 1.03
So to increase by 3%, the multiplier would be 1.03
If you wanted to decrease by 3%, you would SUBTRACT 100% from 3%, so:
100% - 3% = 97%
And then you would divide 97% by 100 to turn it into a decimal (multiplier), so:
97% / 100 = 0.97
So to decrease by 3%, the multiplier would be 0.97
I think you mean b is not equal to 0.
We have that 11.424242... = 11 + 0.424242...
Now let x = 0.424242...
Then 100x = 42.424242...
Now 99x = 100x - x = 42 so 99x = 42 and therefore x = 42/99
Now we can simplify 42/99 to 14/33
Now combining this we get 11.424242... = 11 + 14/33
= 363/33 + 14/33 = 377/33
