    Step-by-step explanation:

    The question is on volume/capacity

    Volume of the tank is given by = l*w * d where l is length, w is width and d is the depth

    l=16 in w = 24 in and d=15in

    v=16*24*15 = 5760 in³

    Time to fill tank

    Given that 600 in³ = 1 min

    5760 in³=?

    = (5760*1) / 600 = 9.6 min
