Question

Two pools are being filled with water. To start, the first pool contains 2200

liters of water and the second pool contains 1840
liters of water. Water is being added to the first pool at a rate of 21.25
liters per minute. Water is being added to the second pool at a rate of 32.5
liters per minute.
(PLEASE ANSWER QUICK)

Answer 1

2200 + 21.25X = 1840 +32.50X

subtract 1840 from each side

360+ 21.25X= 32.50X

subtract 21.25x from each side

360=11.25X

x= 360/11.25 = 32 minutes pool will have the same amount

21.25*32 = 680+2200 = 2880 liters

32.5*32 = 1040 + 1840=2880 liters

it will take 32 minutes and they will have 2880 liters each
