Answer:

Percentage intake = 25%

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Total intake = 3000 cm³

Part intake = 750 cm³

To find the percentage of the boy’s total water intake, we would use the following formula;

[tex] Percentage \; intake = \frac {Part \; intake}{Total \; intake} * 100 [/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] Percentage \; intake = \frac {750}{3000} * 100 [/tex]

[tex] Percentage \; intake = \frac {75000}{3000} [/tex]

Percentage intake = 25%
