The amount of time it takes a water pump to empty a tank varies directly as the capacity of the tank. If it takes a water pump 2.5 hours to empty a tank containing 60,000 gallons of water, how long does it take the same pump to empty a tank containing 108,000 gallons of water?

4.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation: i used cross multiplication.

2.5/x=60,000/108,000

60,000x=270,000

divide 270,000 by 60,000

x=4.5
