A particular dam contains approximately 1 comma 300 comma 000 comma 000 comma 000 cubic feet of water. For a week-long spike flood, water was released at a rate of 24 comma 600 cubic feet per second. a. How much water was released during the flood? b. What percentage of the dam was released during the flood?

a) 14,878,080,000 ft³  b) 1.14‰

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 1 week is equivalent to (7days)

7 days is equivalent to(7 x 24 hours = 168 hours

168 hours is equivalent to 168 x 3600 secs = 604, 800 secs

therefore 1 weeks is = 604,800 secs

water as released at a rate of 24,600 ft³/s i.e for 1 sec,  24,600 ft³ volume of water are released.

Therefore, for 604, 800 secs , (604800 x 24,600 ft³ = 14,878,080,000 ft³ ) volume of water are released.

Hence during the 1 week  flood  14,878,080,000 ft³ volume of water are released.

b)  x 100percent =  1.14‰
