🔍 Key Concepts

• Loading rate = change in volume / change in time • Use the loading rate between 0945 and 1130 to assume a constant rate • Total time to load = amount still to load ÷ loading rate

💭 Think About

• First, how many barrels were loaded between 0945 and 1130, and how many minutes is that time interval? • Once you have the barrels-per-hour (or per-minute) rate, how long will it take to load from 223,000 barrels up to 530,000 barrels? • When you add that loading time to 1130 on 13 April, what clock time and date do you get?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure your time interval between 0945 and 1130 is in a single unit (all minutes or all hours) before dividing. • Check that your remaining volume is the difference between 530,000 and 223,000 barrels, not from the starting amount. • After finding the completion time, confirm that the date is correct and that you have not accidentally gone past midnight without changing the day.
