A fish tank in a pet store was less than half full of

water when a worker turned on a hose to fill the
tank at a constant rate. After the hose was on for
5 minutes, the tank was exactly half full. After
the hose was on for 30 minutes, the tank was
three-quarters full. How many minutes did it take
after the hose was turned on for the tank to be
completely filled with water?

100 minutes

During 25 minutes, it got filled 1/4 more (3/4 - 1/2)

So it would take 100 minutes to completely fill it
