It takes a hose 3 minutes to fill a rectangular aquarium 10 inches long, 11 inches wide, and 13 inches tall. How long will it take the same hose to fill an aquarium measuring 22 inches by 25 inches by 26 inches?
Answered by Ms. Sue
10 * 11 * 13 = 1430 cubic inches
22 * 25 * 26 = 14,300 cubic inches

1430/3 = 476.666 cubic inches per minute

476.6667/1 = 14,300/x

Cross multiply and solve for x.
