1 1/4=5/4

(5/4)/3=x/50

cross product

3*x=(5/4)(50)

3x=250/4

3x=62.5

x=62.5/3

x=20.8333...

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 1 1/4 minutes to fill 3 gal

then how much minutes to fill 1 gal

to find for one unit we usually divide

so l 1/4 divided by 3

we get 5/12 ( do the calculation)

therefore it takes 5/12 minutes per gallon

hence for 50 gallons

5/12 * 50 = 250/12  = 20.83 minutes

answer ----   20.83 minutes
