A certain liquid passes through a drain at a rate of w/25 gallons every x seconds. At that rate, how many minutes will it take y gallons to pass through the drain?
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Time needed for w/25 gallons of liquid to pass through a drain = x seconds
Time needed for w gallons of liquid to pass through a drain = 25x seconds
Time needed for y gallons of liquid to pass through a drain = (25x/w)*y = 25xy/w seconds
= (25xy/w )/60 = 5xy/(12w) mins
