Bill recently had a pool installed in his backyard. The automatic filling system has not yet been installed, but Bill wants to fill his pool, so he has decided to use a garden hose. The pool can hold a total of 34,818 gallons of water. After 8 hours, the water in the pool is one-third of the way to the top. What is the output of the hose in pints per second?

Respuesta :

First convert gallons to pints.
34,818 times 8 is equal to 278544
Divide by 3
92848

Next find the amount of seconds in 8 hours.
60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour times 8 hours
So 28800

Divide 92848 by 28800
Which is 3.223388888 repetent
So you could probably round this to 3.223 pints per second

Hope this help
