If a pool holds 22,000 gallons, how long will it take to fill the pool at a rate of 400 gallons per minute, rounded off to the nearest minute?
_______ minutes
Thank you
I've shown you how to do two of your problems. Now it's your turn.
How do you think this problem can be solved?
Would you divide 22000 by 400? 55 minutes?
Right! You've got it! :-)
Thank you!
You're welcome.
To determine how long it will take to fill the pool, you'll need to divide the total number of gallons in the pool by the rate of filling. Here's how you can calculate it:
First, divide the total number of gallons in the pool by the rate of filling to find the number of minutes it will take to fill the pool:
22,000 gallons รท 400 gallons/minute = 55 minutes
Therefore, it will take approximately 55 minutes to fill the pool.
