soroban said:Skeeter is right . . . it's a trick question.
Similar to this one:
A tank has a capacity of 12 cubic feet.
Air is pumped in at 3 cubic feet per minute.
How long will it take to fill the tank exactly half full of air?
Drag your curson between the asterisks.
*How do you fill a tank "half full of air"?*
