Guide to Solve Exercise 3 on page 21 of Math 5 Textbook
Exercise:
To drain water from a pond, 3 pumps need to work continuously for 4 hours. To finish the task earlier, 6 pumps were used instead. How many hours will it take to drain all the water from the pond?
Solution method:
Apply the ratio method to solve this problem
- Step 1: Calculate the number of times 6 pumps pumps is 3 pumps
- Step 2: To know how many hours it takes for 6 pumps to drain the lake, divide the number of hours that 3 pumps work continuously by the number of times that 6 pumps is 3 pumps.
