The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

If in 0.5 min the tank gets 0.8 gallons of the water then

how many gallons will be in 1 min ?

how many gallons will be in 3 min?

and how long it takes for 40 gallons?

Answer:

1.6 gallons

4.8 gallons

25 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to do with proportion.

If it takes 0.5 mins for the tank to get 0.8 gallons

in 1 minute the tank will get 0.8 * 1/0.5 = 1.6 gallons

In 3 minutes the tank will get 3 * 1.6 gallons = 4.8 gallons

if it takes 1 min to get 1.6 gallons

it will take x mins to get 40 gallons

x = 1 * 40/1.6 = 25 mins

Answer:

Patel will require more orange juice = $\frac{371}{660}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Patel needs the orange juice for his family = 3 cups

He needs more orange juice = 3 cups - Sum of juice squeezed from different oranges

$=3-(\frac{13}{15}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{9}{20}+\frac{5}{11}+\frac{7}{15})$

L.C.M. of the denominators = 660

$=3-\frac{572+132+297+300+308}{660}$

$=3-\frac{1609}{660}$

= $\frac{1980-1609}{660}$

= $\frac{371}{660}$

Therefore, amount of orange juice required more = $\frac{371}{660}$ cups

Simple...

3*10=5*6

2*8=4*4

21+11=9+23

23+20=2+41

$\frac{36}{9} = \frac{12}{3}$

30-5=40-15

90-80=20-10

Thus, your answers.
