Question

The empty gas tank of the truck needs to be completely filled. The tank is shaped like a cylinder that is 4 feet long with a diameter of 2.4 feet. Suppose gas is poured into the tank at a rate of 1.7 thirds of a foot per minute. How many minutes does it take to fill the empty tank? Use the value 3.14 for pie and round your answer to the nearest minute.
volume = π(1.2)^2 (4) ft^3

rate = 1.7 thirds of a foot ????

once you have that one figured out, divide
volume by rate
