Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

At 9:30 AM , he started filling the pond and at 12:30 PM means, after 3 hrs, he had filled 2100 gallons.

Means,

2100 gallons can be filled in time = $3 \ hrs$

So, 1 gallon can be filled in time = $\frac{3}{2100} \hrs$

Hence, 3500 gallons can be filled in time = $\frac{3}{2100}*3500$

Hence, 3500 gallons can be filled in time = $5 \ hrs$

Means it will take 5 hrs to fill the pond.

So after 5 hrs, time will be : $9:30 AM + 5 \ hrs$

The time will be : $2:30 \ PM$    :   Answer
