Respuesta :

Number of gallons per week  pipe is leaking=(1.5 cups/day)*(1 gallon /16 cups)*(7 days/1 week)=0.65625 gallons:

Answer:  the pipe is leaking= 0.65625 gallons
taskmasters
Amount of water leaked by the pipe per day = 1.5 cups
Number of days in a week = 7
Then
Amount of water leaked by the pipe in 7 days = (1.5 x 7) cups
                                                                         = 10.5 cups
It is already given in the question that
16 cups = 1 gallon
So
10.5 cups = 10.5/16 gallons
                 = 0.65625 gallons
                 = 0.66 gallons
So the pipe is leaking about 0.66 gallons per week. I hope the answer comes to your help.
