A swimming pool has a capacity of 10,000 gallons of water. The swimming pool was about 20% full when a water hose was turned on to fill the pool at a rate of 75 gallons every 5 minutes

Sagot :

Answer:  533 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the question is when will the pool be full (?).  It will require 8,000 gallons more water.  A rate of 75 gallons per 5 minutes is: 15 gallons/min.

(8,000 gal/15 gallons/min) =  533 minutes, or 8.89 hours
