If a swimming pool drains $ 21 \mathrm{~L} $ of water in $ 1 \mathrm{~min} $, find how much water is drained out of the pool in $ 14 \mathrm{~min} $.

Given:

A swimming pool drains \( 21 \mathrm{~L} \) of water in \( 1 \mathrm{~min} \).
To do:

We have to find the volume of water drained out of the pool in \( 14 \mathrm{~min} \).

Solution:

Volume of water drained in 1 min $=21\ L$

This implies,

Volume of water drained out of the pool in \( 14 \mathrm{~min} =21\times14\ L \)

$=294\ L$

Therefore, $294\ L$ of water is drained out of the pool in \( 14 \mathrm{~min} \).
