malik fills a pool with water. it takes 1/4 hour to fill the pool with 180 gallons of water what is the unit rate in gallons per hour

1 answer

To find the unit rate in gallons per hour, we need to first convert the time from 1/4 hour to 1 hour. Since 1/4 hour is 15 minutes, which is 1/4 of an hour, we can calculate it as follows:

1/4 hour x 4 = 1 hour

Then, we find the amount of water that can be filled in 1 hour:

180 gallons รท 1/4 = 180 gallons x 4 = 720 gallons

So, the unit rate in gallons per hour is 720 gallons per hour.
