    So

    1 find volume

    2 divide how much is acuall in there by volume

    3. convert to percent

    V=LWH

    V=14*16*10

    V=2240

    1680 is actually ful

    1680/2240=3/4=0.75

    percent means parts out of 100

    0.75/1 times 100/100=75/100=75%

    total-actuall=emptu

    10075=25

    answer is 25%

    2) 25

    The total capacity of the tank can be found by finding the volume

    V = l x h x w

    V = 14 x 16 x 10

    V = 2240 cubic inches

    The tank only has 1680 cubic inches of water in it

    1680/2240 = 0.75

    x100% = 75% full

    This leaves 25% of the fish tank empty
