a tanker hold 500 gallons of water it drains 24 gallons of water in 6 minutes what is the changing water in 1 minute remember the integer representation is needed

1 answer

To find the rate of change of water in the tanker per minute, we can use the information provided:

The tanker drains 24 gallons of water in 6 minutes.

To find the rate per minute, we can divide the total gallons drained by the total time in minutes:

\[ \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Gallons drained}}{\text{Time (minutes)}} = \frac{24 \text{ gallons}}{6 \text{ minutes}} = 4 \text{ gallons per minute} \]

So, the changing water in 1 minute is 4 gallons.
