Water is pouring into a plastic box 1.0 mx 1.0 m x 0.30 m at the rate of 125 ml per minute. How long will it take in hours to fill this box?
(1 cm² = 1 mL)

2.4 hrs = 144 minutes.

0.4 x 60 = 24

60+60+24 = 144 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = 1 m  x 1m  x 0.30 = 0.30 m^3

rate = 125ml

125 /  1000

0.30 / 0.125 = 2.4 hours.

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

1st step: isolate x.

24 - 3x = -27

-24         -24

-3x   =   -51

2nd step: divide.

-3x     =   -51

  3             3

  x       =     17

hope this
