Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to get the rate at which the slushy was drunk.
The initial amount was :
= 275 ml
The final amount = 210 ml
The time it took to take this to 210 ml is as follows.
= 13 seconds.
The amount drunk within this time is equal to :
275 - 210 = 65 ml
So it took 13 seconds to drink 65 ml
To get the rate at which he drank the Slushy we work it out as follows.
Time = 13 seconds
Amount = 65 ml
Rate of slushy per second :
= 65/13 = 5
= 5ml of slushy per second.
