Question

The Boxerville pool was drained at the end of the summer. Every hour, the water level dropped 12 inches. If the water level was 60 inches to begin with, what was the water level one hour into draining the pool?

Answer 1

60-12

Answer 2

48 hours

Answer 3

Not 48 hours, the question is how much water drained after one hour, which means that if the water was 60 inches, 12 inches would be drained which leaves 48 inches after the first hour
