The area under the serum concentration-time curves (AUC) were measured after single doses of 10 mg of a new antihypertensive drug were administered in hypertensive patients.

The results were as follows: intravenous bolus AUC = 7500 mg . h/L, oral capsule AUC = 500 mg . h/L, oral liquid AUC = 220 mg . h/L. What is the bioavailability of the oral liquid?
