are you fucking serious?

if you are trying to fill the pool why would you even open the drain pipe?

tell the teacher the question is retarded.

tell the teacher you will answer the questions as to how long it will take with the pool 2/3rds full if you only open the inlet pipe. (i am bad at maths but would assume 10 hours?)

This could actually apply to real life except for the fact that no one in their fucking right mind who are trying to fill a pool would open the drain pipe for any reason whatsoever.

Are you fucking with us? this can't seriously be a question!!!!

so water is flowing out 2/3 of how much water is flowing in
so essentialy when both outlets are open its like having only 1/3 of the water coming in with nothing coming out
so if it takes 10 hours to fill a third of the tank it would take 3 times longer to fill it which wut they already said was 30

it's to get you to think critically, not to be practical.

the testmaker probably couldn't think of a good real-life example to relay the concepts that they are trying to test over/teach..

if you want to be practical, go to technical school.

Sweet it was correct! Thanx all.

Im going to do this next one also but im also going to post it so I can compare to what other people get to make sure I get this last one right.

One numvber is 2/3 of a number. The sum of the 2 numbers is 35. find the 2 numbers.

Looking at it it doesn't seem to hard.




that doesn't even require math..

21 + 14 = 35

14 is 2/3 of 21..

Well, it might be elementary, but it's still math :wink:.  Ferris- That's a good question.  Let's see, if x=the number of engineers, and y=total beer intake...

Don't forget to throw in the time variable so the graph starts to look like a vortex.

Suck a dick. This question is not practical and if the testmaker cant think of a real life example that is BETTER THAN THIS FUCKING NONSENSE then he should not be writing said test.

I think critically, therefore I think the question is complete nonsense, I overlooked the simple math to show that this is a ridiculous question.

I have never seen such an illogical question on any math test. There has to be about a billion different things that could be used that make more sense than this.

Thats what happens when uneducated people write questions for education.

The same people who thinks all slaves in america where black.

The same that think "aids" is caused by a magical virus called HIV.

The same that think that Christopher Columbus, and Italian man called the people he encountered "Indians" because he though he was in India, despite that in 1492 that India was called Hindustan, and that he would not call them anything based on the english version of said country regardless, and that for some illogical reason, the name stuck for 600+ years. (he called them Indios/Indians because "In Dios" means "in god" in Italian/Spanish (he was funded by the Spanish)

With your mindset, no wonder the facts get skewed.
