Answer:
Pool A.
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be solved through ratios. You would write it as So,
for the first one, and
for the second. You might want to use a calculator for that part, but you could also change the gallons to cups, which gives you a much better number of 10.515. So,
, and
So, pool A is at a faster rate. If you want it in gallons per minute, it's by 0.01 (with the 1 repeating) gallons per minute. By cups, it's 0.17525 cups per minute.
(The reason I did not do this by cross multiplying and dividing ratios is because it gives you the exact same answer if you are finding it per one, as I am here with per one minute. You can do it this way, it just wastes a bit of time.)
Set up the proportion with the numbers on top equalling the cars and the numbers on the bottom representing the trucks.
c equals the number of unknown cars.
To solve the proportion, cross multiply (multiply 8 by 9 and 36 by c) and solve for c.
72 = 36c
Divide 36 from both sides to get the answer.
c = 2
If there are 9 trucks, there are 2 cars.
You can check this by dividing 2 by 9, and dividing 8 by 36. Since they both equal the same number, this answer is correct.
Hope this helps =)
