Answer:
The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons
= 200 minutes or 3 hours 20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1 :
We calculate the rate at which the hoses fill for Andre and His neighbor
For Andre
The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes.
The rate is calculated as:
5 gallon/2 minutes
= 2.5 gallons/minute
For His neighbor
The hose at his next-door neighbor's house can fill a 10-gallon bucket in 8
minutes.
= 10 gallon/8 minutes
= 1.25 gallon/minute
Step 2
Hence:
If they use both their garden hoses at the same time, and the hoses continue working at the same rate, the sum of their rate =
2.5 + 1.25 = 3.75 gallons per minute.
Step 3
The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons =
750 gallons ÷ 3.75 gallons per minute
= 200 minutes
= 3 hours 20 minutes
Answer: 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the missing fraction be x
x + 1/16 = 3/2
Make x the subject by subtracting both sides by 1/16
x = 3/2 - 1/16
x= 24 - 16/16
= 8/16; divide through by a common value of 8
x = 1/2
I hope this helps.
