If you know the rate of a water leak in gallons per hour, how can you find the number of hours it takes for 1 gallon to leak out? Justifyyour answer

Respuesta :

1/the rate of leakage per hour

This will give you the time it takes for 1 gallon to leak out in hours.  

For example, if something is leaking at the rate of 12 gallons per hour, it will take 1/12 of an hour for 1 gallon to leak out. ( or 5 min)
