Answer:
B)13 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
SO first we find the unit rate
We know that in 90 minutes (hour and a half), the water leaked 6 pints form 2;30 to 4
Now So we can divide to find unit rate
6/90=1/15
So 1 pint for every 15 minutes
And now we want to know the amount it takes from 2:30 to 6:30 which is 4 hours
40 hours is 240 minutes
SO we can divide now
240/15=16
SO 16 pints leaked but the question asked for remaining water in container
So 29-16 is 13
So B)13
