1. An empty pool is being filled with water at a constant rate. It takes 9 hours to fill 3/5 th of the pool. How much more time will it take to compeletely fill the pool?

  • A. 15
  • B. 15
  • C. 15
  • D. 15

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

***This question is erroneous....

Part of the pool remaining to be filled = 1 - 3/5 = 2/5

3/5 of the pool can be filled in 9 hours

So, the entire pool can be filled in 9×5/3 = 15 hours
