A small pool filled only with water will require an additional 300 gallons of water in order to be filled to 80% of its capacity. If pumping in these additional 300 gallons of water will increase the amount of water in the pool by 25%, what is the total capacity of the pool in gallons? Answers
A) 1875  B) 1250  C) 1300  D) 1600  E) 1625
300 gallons of water increases capacity by 25% that means   25% is 300 gallons, so 100% would be = 300*100/25=

1200 gallons   Now 1200 +300 gallons is 80% capacity of tank.   so 100% capacity would be= 1500 *100/80=

<output>1_875</output>
