Answer= 4 hours.
The first pipe can fill one pool in nine hours. So in one hour, it can fill 1/9th of the pool. Same with the other pipe, it can fill 1/6th of the pool in other hour.
So 1/9 + 1/6 would represent the first hour of filling the pool. Since 1/9 + 1/6 = .277.. , 27% of the pool is filled. Repeat this until you get to 100% (full pool).

First hour, 1/6 + 1/9 = .27
Second hour, 2/6 + 2/9 = .5
Third hour, 3/6 + 3/9 = .83
Fourth hour, 4/6 + 4/9 = 1.11

So in 4 hours, the pool will be filled.

8 ft 6 inches is greater or less than 100 inches?
Romashka [77]
It would be greater, because 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. 8 times 12 is 96. Then 96 plus 6 inches in 102. So it would be greater.
