    Step-by-step explanation:

    we have that if in 4000 L/sol there is 132 kg salt and the pumping speed is 12L/s, we must find how much of salt is pumping per second and then find the amount of salt remaining

    12L/s*132kg salt/4000L = 0.396 Kg salt/s, this means that 0.396 kg per second comes out, It should be found that the amount of salt must be drained so that only 11 kg of salt remain

    132kg salt - 11 kg salt = 121 kg salt, so

    121Kg salt*s/0.396Kg salt ≅ 305.55 s ⇒ 305.55s*min/60s ≅ 5.09 min
