Answer:

<em>It takes 21 hours to fill the pool</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first plan out our problem at hand. If we were to determine the volume of this swimming pool by multiplication of it's dimensions (length * width * height) we could determine how long it would take to fill the pool by dividing this volume by the rate at which the pool fills. This is true as R = D/T, and here we isolate T (time) so that T = D/R, where D is the volume of the pool, and R is the rate at which it fills:

1. Calculate the volume of the pool -

V = length * width * height = 12 * 24 * 6 = 1728 cubic feet

2. Substitute R (rate) into T = D/R to find T (time) -

T = D/R = 1728/86 = (About) 20.09 hours

Now to round this value, we would have to round it up as sparing 20 hours would not fill the pool: 21 hours

D’Quan’s grandmother made a quilt for his bed. The quilt is
damaskus [11]
One Square Meter= 10.764 Square Feet.
The total area of the quilt in meters is 4.465m^{2}
As you're looking for square feet, you've then got to multiply this by 10.764
4.465*10.764= 48.06086 square feet.
Rounded, this is 48.06 square feet.
Hope this helps :)
