    Answer:

    16,000 liters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Assuming the pool does not curve in any direction and is a big box with 90° corners:

    1/16. 2,000 liters

    2/16. 4,000 liters

    3/16. 6,000 liters

    4/16. 8,000 liters

    5/16. 10,000 liters

    6/16. 12,000 liters

    7/16. 14,000 liters

    8/16. 16,000 liters

    9/16. 18,000 liters

    10/16. 20,000 liters

    Answer:

    Half full = 16,000 liters

    Need to add 14,000 more liters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Proportions and Fractions

    The swimming pool contains 2,000 liters of water and it’s said to be 1/16 full. this means that the total capacity of the pool is:

    2,000 liters * 16 = 32,000 liters

    It’s required to calculate how many liters of water are required to make the pool half full.

    This can be found by dividing the above number by 2, thus:

    Half capacity of the pool = 32,000 / 2 = 16,000 liters

    We’ll provide the following answer in case it’s required.

    To reach half capacity, it would be necessary to add

    16,000 liters – 2,000 liters = 14,000 liters of water to the existing amount.
