A small pool filled only with water will require an additional 800 gallons of water in order to be filled to 80% of its capacity. If pumping in these additional 800 gallons of water will increase the amount of water in the pool by 30%, what is the total capacity of the pool in gallons? Answers:
A) 1000
B) 1250
C) 1300
D) 2000
E) 2250
Since pumping in additional 800 gallons of water will increase the amount of water in the pool by 30%, then initially the pool is filled with 1,000 gallons of water.   So, we have that 1,000 + 800 = 0.8*{total} --&gt; {total} = 2,250.   Answer: 2250.
