<span>Rate of pump A: 1/8 of a pool per hour
Rate of pump B: 1/9 of a pool per hour
Combined rate: 1/8+1/9 = 17/72 +1/9 = 25/72
So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 25/72 of a pool per hour (i.e in one hour, the two pumps will empty 25/72 of the pool)
</span><span>But we want to empty ONE pool (not 25/72 of one). So we need to multiply 25/72 by some number x to get 1.
</span>
<span>Now solve for x
x=2.88
</span><span>It will take the two pumps 2.88 hours to empty the pool.
2 hours 52 minutes 50 seconds</span>
The answer is 17/80

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1a. 25/50 =x/100
25*100= 2500/50= 50
A= 50%
1b. 35/40 = x/100
35*100= 3500/40= 87.5
A=87.5%
2a. 15/20= x/100
20*5= 100; 15*5= 75
A=75%
2b. 25/70= x/100
25*100= 2500/70= 35.71
A=35.71
3a. 15/80= x/100
15*100= 1500/80=18.75
A=18.75%
3b. 30/60= x/100
30/60= 1/2;1/2=0.5;0.5= 50%
A=50%
4a. 70/80 =x/100
70*100=7000/80 =87.5
A=87.5
4b.30/60 = 50% ( same as question #3b)
