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.

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%.
