    A rectangular swimming pool is 40 meters long and 25

    meters wide. If the pool is being filled at a rate of 10 cubic meters per minute, how long will it take to fill the pool to a depth of 2.5 
    A 250 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 200 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 275 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 300 minutes Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Volume of the pool = length * width * depth = 40 * 25 * 2.5 = 2500 cubic meters. Filling rate = 10 cubic meters per minute. Time required to fill the pool = 2500 / 10 = 250 minutes.
