Gavin's pool requires that 16% of the pool's water be mixed with chlorine. If it takes 500 gallons of chlorine mix, how many gallons does the pool hold?

Answer:

3125 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

16% of the pool water must be chlorine.  16% of the pool water is 500 gallons.  To find the total volume of the pool, divide the gallons of chlorine by the percentage chlorine is of the total.

16% = 0.16

500/0.16 = 3125

The total volume of the pool is 3125 gallons.

Let me know if this doesn't make sense!
The answer is 3125 gallons
