Answer:

about 1.4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

3.13 gallons per minute.

60 minutes in an hour, so multiply both numbers by 60.

187.8 gallons per hour.

Divide the number of gallons we need to fill the tub the number of gallons put in per hour.

255÷187.8=1.375...

Round it, you get 1.4 hours.

It takes about 1.4 hours to fill the hot tub.
