A certain pump fills an empty pool at a rate of 600 cubic decimeters per second. If one meter is equivalent to 10 decimeters and one liter is equivalent to one cubic decimeters, how many liters of water are in the pool half an hour after the pump starts?

Answer:

108,0000 liters

Explanation:

It should be 108,0000 liters because if there are 60 seconds per minute and the pump was on for 39 mins, 60 x 30 = 1800

Then 1800 seconds times 600 liters per second equals 108,0000 liters
