Question

if you have a tank with a capacity of 25000 gallons and you fill it from the low level of 10% to the high level of 85%, how much time will it take pumping 2000 gallons per hour if you have a tank with a capacity of 25000 gallons and you fill it from the low level of 10% to the high level of 85%, how much time will it take pumping 2000 gallons per hour if you have a tank with a capacity of 25000 gallons and you fill it from the low level of 10% to the high level of 85%, how much time will it take pumping 2000 gallons per hour

Explanation / Answer

as we have started filling the tank from 10% to 85% so the total filled tank will be 75% of its total capacity.

75% X 25000 gallons = 18750 gallons

the rate of filling is 2000 gallons / hour

so for 1 gallon time required = 1/2000 hours

so for 18750 gallons time required = 18750 / 2000 hours = 9.375 hours.

So it will take 9.375 hours to fill it.
