You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Sum of the rates is the combined fill rate of both faucets. TUB per HOUR units.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%2F%281%2F2%29%2B1%2F1\", rate of hot faucet plus rate of cold faucet.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2B1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3\"--------TUBS per HOUR\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You want, how many hours per 1 tub, which means \"3%2Atubs%2F%281%2Ahour%29\" must be used as \"1%2Ahour%2F%283%2Atubs%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%2F3\" hour to fill 1 tub.
\n" ); document.write( "This is 20 minutes to fill 1 tub.
