You have a large tank filled with 175 gallons of water. The tank spring a leak and water is pouring out at a rate of 5 gallons per minute.
To find out how long it will take for the tank to empty, you can use the formula:
Time = Quantity / Rate
In this case, the quantity is 175 gallons and the rate is 5 gallons per minute.
Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
Time = 175 gallons / 5 gallons per minute
Time = 35 minutes
Therefore, it will take 35 minutes for the tank to empty completely.
That's too bad.
Do you have a question about this situation?
