Question

Can someone help me with this one question?

A pool is filling with water at a rate of 45 gallons every 5 minutes,

How long will it take the pool to fill with water if the pool holds 4,635 gallons?

Answer 1

It would take 1 hour 43 minutes to fill other pool all the way. 103*45 is 4,635.

Answer 2

Answer:

515 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know is this:

45 gallons          4,635 gallons

________          ___________

5 minutes               ? minutes

We can solve it with multiplication and division.

4,635 / 45 = 103

Now, to make it even, we can multiply the 5 by 103.

5 x 103 = 515

We can check our answer:

45 / 5 = 9 and 4,635 / 515 = 9.

Therefore, it will take 515 minutes to fill the pool.
