Answer:
93.75min
Explanation:
Solution:
The rate of fill up is, Rate = 3.2 Gallons / minute = 3.2 g/min
The hut tub volume is 300 Gallons
You can set up this problem as follows:
Every 3.2 gallons require 1 minute, How many minutes 300 gallons require?
3.2 g 1min
300 g ? min = (300 gallons x 1min/ 3.2 gallons)=(300/32)min
= 93.75 min
or simply the number minutes is the time required (T) the rate is (R) and the volume is (V)
such that T=V/R= (300g/3.2 g/min)= 93.75 min
There is no conversion of units in this problem, but manipulation of units
