Question

A pool pump fills 1/6 of the pool in 1/3 hour. How much of the swimming pool is filled in one hour?

Answer 1

half of the pool would be filled in one hour

Answer 2

Half of the swimming pool will be filled in one hour.

Explanation:

Given that a pool pump fills
`(1)/(6)` of the pool in
`(1)/(3)` hour.

Since
`(1)/(6)` pool takes
`(1)/(3) =20 min`

Hence full pool will take
`20(6) = 120 minutes = 2 hours`

So in one hour only half of the pool will be filled

Half of the swimming pool will be filled in one hour.
