If it takes 52 minutes to clear a full stadium when 8 gates are open how long would it take to clear the stadium when 13 gates are open? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! there is an inverse relationship between number of gates open and clearing time.
t=k/g where t is time, g is gates open and k is a constant. Find k.
52=k/8
k=416
Now use k to get t
t=416/13
t=32 minutes.
