Answer 1

Answer:Divide 24,000 by 4 = 6,000 which = 1/4. so 3/4 = 18,000.

1 hour = 60 minutes

40 gallons X 60 minutes = 2,400 gallons per hour.

18,000/2,400 = 7.5 hour to fill 3/4

7.5 hours = 450 minutes.

Answer 2

600 min

Explanation:

It takes 1 min per 40 gal

Time = 24 000 × 1/40

Time = 600 min
