wastewater is filling barrels at the rate of 11 quarts per hour .the recycling facility picks up 120 full barrels on each trip , and each barrel holds 12 quarts of wastewater how many days are between each pickup?

Respuesta :

11t=120(12)

11t=1440

t=1440/11

However t is in hours and we want to know days so:

d=(1440/11)/24

d=1440/264

d=60/11

d=5 5/11 daysis a mixed number 5+5/11 days. Approximately 5.45 days....
Answer: 5.45 days 


I hope this helps and have a wonderful day!
