Question

A tanker truck fills the gas station’s reservoir at the rate of 12 1/2 gallons per minute.
If the reservoir was empty and it is now 35 gallons full, how long has the tanker been filling the reservoir?

Answer 1

Answer: 2.8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 12.5 gallons per minutes to fill the reservoir, then we have to divide 35 and 12.5.

35 ÷ 12.5 = 2.8 minutes

Since it takes 12.5 gallons per minutes to fill the reservoir, it will take 2.8 minutes to fill the reservoir.

hope this helps!
