It is empty a gallon every two and a half minutes so 2 1/2x x=gallons of water
it will take 12 1/2 minutes to completely empty since it takes 2 1/2 minutes per gallon.
the tank was full 7 1/2 minutes before Jada arrived. 10-7= 3 so it emptied 3 gallons before Jada arrived. It takes 2 1/2 mins for a gallon to empty so 2 1/2 times 3 equals 7 1/2 mins
Answer:
D. 8/15
Step-by-step explanation:
4/5 = 2/3 +1/3
We need to multiply by 6 to find answer as 3 is a divider of 6
4 x 6 =24
5 x 6 =30
24/30
Then we find 1/2 of 30 and add this to make 3/3
Just like 1/2 of 2 = 1 and 2+1 = 3
30 / 2 = 15
15 + 30 =45
The answer is 24/45
We then reduce this fraction by 3 as 6 + 8 do not divide into 45
24/45 = 8/15
The answer is 8/15
Less than. -20 is not the same as positive 20
