An oil company fills 1 over 12 of a tank in 1 over 3 hour. At this rate, which expression can be used to determine how long will it take for the tank to fill completely?

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't let fractions fool you.

of a tank in  an hour is equal to:

1/12 of a tank in 20 minutes.

Thus we know in an hour, an oil company can fill 3/12 of a tank (60 minutes in an hour).

3 x 4 = 12, and 12/12 = 1(a whole tank), so we multiply 1 (hour) by 4.

Our answer is that it takes 4 hours to fill a tank.

it's  1/3 ⋅ 12 hours

or

3 ⋅ 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

so, it will cost $300.
