if ronald is calculating the time required to fill the swimming pool at school. he found it takes 12 minutes to fill the swimming pool with 108 gallons of water. At what rate does the swimming pool fill, in gallons per minute?

the pool fills up at the rate of 180 gallons/12 minutes. Which gives 12 gallons per minute.
