A hose fills a hot tub at a rate of 2.09 gallons per minute. How many hours will it take to fill a 327 gallon hot tub?

2.60 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

A hose fills a hot tub at a rate of ,

2.09 gallons ⇒ 1 minute

Now we have to find the time which takes to fill a 327 gallon hot tub.

For that, let the unknown time be x.

So,

2.09 gallons ⇒ 1 minute

327 gallon    ⇒  x

Use cross multiplication to find the value of x.

2.09 x  =  327 × 1

2.09x   = 327

x   = 327 ÷ 2.09

x   = 156.45 min

Therefore, it takes 156.45 minutes.

But the question is asked for hours.

So,

Let us solve now.

156.45 ÷ 60 = 2.60 hours

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

2 hours and 36 minutes

327 ÷ 2.09 is 156.4

divide that by 60 for the minutes and its 2 hours and 36 minutes

45

step-by-step explanation:

to find a percentage, add a decimal in front and multiply it by the other number.

.25 times 180= 45

the answer is $42.96
