Answer:

1) 8 hours

2) 12 pumps

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Distance travelled=800 km

Because if you use the speed distance time triangle, 80*10=800

We can then use this to find out how long it would take to travel it at a different speed.

800km/100=8 so it takes 8 hours

2)

36*3=108 so if there was only one pump, it would take 108 hours to fill the pool.

108/9=12 so you would need 12 pumps
