Tiffany is filling her daughter's pool with water from a hose. She can fill the pool at a rate of \(\frac{1}{10}\) gallons per second. Create at least three equivalent ratios that are associated with this rate.

At first I assumed you were asking for 3 different ratios equivalent to 1/10, which could be 2/20, 10/100, or 5/50. But it seems you are asking for ratios equivalent to 1/10 gallons to second. For this, you could change both the 'gallons' and the 'seconds' to get different unit with the same ratio. 1/10 gallon/second * 60 seconds / 1 minute = 6 gallons/minute 1/10 gallon/second * 1 gallon / 4 quarts = 1/40 quarts/second combining these two conversions we can do 1/10 gallon/second * 60 second / 1 minute * 1 gallon / 4 quarts = 3/2
Final answer: 1/10 gallons/second = 6 gallons/minute = 1/40 quarts/second = 3/2 quarts/minute Hope I helped :)

Two possible answers are:
2/20 gallons per minute and 3/30 gallons per minute.
Explanation :
To find equivalent ratios, we are finding equivalent fractions. To do this, we would multiply the numerator and denominator of the original fraction, 1/10, by the same constant.
(1 2)/(10 2) = 2/20 and (1 3)/(10 3) = 3/30.

Tiffany's pool filling rate of 10 1 ​ gallons per second has several equivalent ratios. Three examples are 20 2 ​ , 50 5 ​ , and 60 6 ​ . These ratios demonstrate the same rate expressed in different forms.
