A Fire Engine's Water Tank Holds 750 Gallons Of Water. If The Pump Removes 250 Gallons Of Water In 5 Minutes, What Is The Change In The Amount of water in gallons in 1 minute?
The change in the amount of water is 250 gallons in 5 minutes, so in 1 minute, the change in the amount of water is 250 gallons / 5 minutes = <<250/5=50>>50 gallons. Answer: \boxed{50}.
To find the change in the amount of water in 1 minute, we can calculate the rate at which the water is being removed per minute.
We know that the pump removes 250 gallons of water in 5 minutes. Therefore, the rate at which the water is being removed is:
Rate = Volume / Time
Rate = 250 gallons / 5 minutes
Rate = 50 gallons/minute
So, the change in the amount of water in 1 minute is 50 gallons.
