question: a 12,000 gallon pool is being filled at a rate of 40 gallons per minute. At this rate how many minutes will it take to fill this pool 3/4th full?
do you know xiogonz?
First we have to find what 3/4 of the pool is equal to. So we have to multiply it by 12,000 12000* 3/4 Which equals to =9000 gallons If the rate = 40 gallons per minute Then: 9000/40 =225 minutes Now we can see that it would take 225 minutes to fill up 3/4 of the pool.
