As We Know That,
Se = WG.
Where S = Degree of saturation; e = void ratio; W = water content; G = Specific gravity.
So, W = 15% = 0.15 e = 0.5 and G = 2.50
Hence S = WG/e = 0.15 * 2.50/0.5 = 0.75.
But degree of saturation is expressed in % so S = 75% answer.
Se = WG.
Where S = Degree of saturation; e = void ratio; W = water content; G = Specific gravity.
So, W = 15% = 0.15 e = 0.5 and G = 2.50
Hence S = WG/e = 0.15 * 2.50/0.5 = 0.75.
But degree of saturation is expressed in % so S = 75% answer.

Degree of saturation (Sr) = wG/e.
= 0.15 x 2.5/0.5,
= 0.75,
= 75%.
= 0.15 x 2.5/0.5,
= 0.75,
= 75%.

The relation between water content, degree of saturation, specific gravity and void ratio is given by Se=WG (or) s = WG/e.

s = w*G/e = (.15*2.65/.50)*100 = 75%.
w = water content.
G = sp. gravity.
e = void ratio.
s = degree of saturation.
w = water content.
G = sp. gravity.
e = void ratio.
s = degree of saturation.

s*e = w*g.
s = w*g/e.
w = 15%, g = 2.5, e = 0.5.
s = 0.15*2.5/0.5.
= 0.75.
Answer: 75%.
s = w*g/e.
w = 15%, g = 2.5, e = 0.5.
s = 0.15*2.5/0.5.
= 0.75.
Answer: 75%.

es = GW.
s = Degree of saturation.
s = GW/e = 2.5*.15/.5 = 75%.
s = Degree of saturation.
s = GW/e = 2.5*.15/.5 = 75%.

GS = we,
S = we/g.
By substituting the values we get 75%.
S = we/g.
By substituting the values we get 75%.

As
S = wG/e.
S = (15 %100x 2.5)/0.5
S = 0.75
S = 75%.
S = wG/e.
S = (15 %100x 2.5)/0.5
S = 0.75
S = 75%.
