The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes. The hose at his next-door neighbor's house can fill a 10-gallon bucket in 8 minutes. If they use both their garden hoses at the same time, and the hoses continue working at the same rate they did when filling a bucket, how long will it take to fill a 750-gallon pool?

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
