Respuesta :

First figure out what 3/4 of the pool is. 

12000* 3/4 
=9000 gallons 

If the rate is 40 gallons per minute, 
9000/40 
=225 minutes 

It would take 225 minutes to fill up 3/4 of the pool.

Hope I helped :) 

The number of minutes taken to fill the pool in three-fourths full is 225.

Given that,

  • There is a 12,000-gallon pool filled at the rate of 40 gallons per minute.
  • And, there is three-fourths full.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

[tex]= (12000 \times \frac{3}{4}) \div 40[/tex]

= 225 minutes

Therefore we can conclude that the number of minutes taken to fill the pool in three-fourths full is 225.
