Answer:
3600 gallons of water was removed from the basement.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Rate of each pump = 40 gallons/min
We need to find find the number of gallons of water removed from the basement.
Solution:
Now Given:
After half an hour, the one pump burns out.
Now we know that;
1 hour = 60 mins
hour =
Now for 30 mins both the pumps were working and removing the water.
So we can say that;
Water remove for first 30 mins =
Also Given:
the second pump finishes removing the water half an hour later.
So we can say that;
Water removed for next 30 mins =
Now we can say that;
Total water removed from the basement is equal to sum of Water remove for first 30 mins and Water removed for next 30 mins .
framing in equation form we get;
Total water removed from the basement =
Hence 3600 gallons of water was removed from the basement.

Answer:
466 + 68
Step-by-step explanation:
We can easily check a subtraction problem with an addition problem.
Calculate the sum of the subtracted and the difference. If the sum is equal to the minuend in the original subtraction problem, the answer is correct.
Minuend - Subtrahend = Difference
466 + 68 = 534
The statement '534 – 68 = 466' is correct.
Hope this helps.
