Question

A pipe drips twice every 20 seconds. How many times will it drip in 4 minutes????
​

Answer 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

60/20

3 x 4 = 12

then double 12 because it is 2 times every 20 seconds

Answer 2

We know that
Pipe drips 2 time in every 20 secs.
Now
4 minutes = 240 secs
20 secs ——> 2 times
240 secs ——-> x times


EQUATION = 240 * 2 / 20 = x
= 480/20
= 24

Sol = the pipe will drip 24 times in 4 minutes.
