Turn it into a improper fraction and then multiply both the numerator and denominator together!
So like 1 1/2 x 2 1/2
Turn that into improper fractions and get 3/2x5/2
then you get 15/2 which is 7 1/2
What do you mean this sentence?
the time a pump takes to drain the pool varies inversely with the power in watts of the pump,
The meaning would be : if we have a power in watts greater the time to drag the pool will be less because the relation between power and time is inverse.
40 watts--------------5 hours)
100 watts------------ x
because the relation between power and time is inverse, we multiply directly.
40 watts(5 hours)=100 watts x
x=(200 watts hours) / 100 watts=2 hours.
Answer: the time would be 2 hours. (the new pump is faster)
