a gasoline pump delivers 4 2/5 gallons of gas per minute. How many minutes will it take to fill a gas tank that holds 16 1/2 gallons?

3 3/4

Divide:

16 1/2 by 4 2/5 = ?

It would be easier to change these fractions to decimals.

16.5 / 4.4 = ?

Thank You

Thx

Really??????........

You're welcome.

thank you very much

To determine how many minutes it will take to fill a gas tank that holds 16 1/2 gallons, we need to divide the total capacity of the gas tank by the rate at which the gasoline pump delivers gas.

First, let's convert the mixed fraction "16 1/2" to an improper fraction:
16 1/2 = (16 * 2 + 1) / 2 = 33/2

Next, let's convert the mixed fraction "4 2/5" to an improper fraction:
4 2/5 = (4 * 5 + 2) / 5 = 22/5

To find the number of minutes, we can use the following formula:
Number of minutes = Gas tank capacity / Rate of pump

Substituting the values into the formula:
Number of minutes = (33/2) / (22/5)

To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:
Number of minutes = (33/2) * (5/22)

Now, let's simplify the expression by canceling out common factors:
Number of minutes = (33 * 5) / (2 * 22)
Number of minutes = 165 / 44

Therefore, it would take approximately 3.75 minutes to fill a gas tank that holds 16 1/2 gallons using a gasoline pump that delivers 4 2/5 gallons of gas per minute.
