Each morning a gardener uses 25 gallons of water from a barrel. Each afternoon, she adds 15 gallons of water to the barrel. By how much has the volume of water in the barrel changed after 5 days?

Given :

Each morning a gardener uses 25 gallons of water from a barrel.

Each afternoon, she adds 15 gallons of water to the barrel.

To Find :

By how much has the volume of water in the barrel changed after 5 days.

Solution :

Amount of of water used from the barrel per day is :

A = 25 - 15 gallons

A = 10 gallons

Now, volume of water in the barrel changed after 5 days is :

V = A × 5 gallons

V = 10 × 5 gallons

V = 50 gallons

Therefore, volume of water in barrel is changed by 50 gallons.
