Answer:

  5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the pool is ...

  V = LWH

  V = (10 ft)(8 ft)(5 ft) = 400 ft^3

At the given fill rate, the time it will take is ...

  (400 ft^3)/(80 ft^3/h) = 5 h

It will take 5 hours for the pump to fill the pool.

Answer:

Im pretty sure the answer is 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The capacity of swimming pool is

v = 10 ⋅ 8 ⋅ 5 = 400 cubic feet

The pump fills 80 cubic feet in 1 hour

Therefore, the pump will fill

400 cubic feet in 5 hours.
