Answer: There is 12 gallons of water , the faucet leak in 48 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of gallon bucket of water = 5
Number of every hours it is needed = 20
We need to find the number of gallons of water that is needed for 48 hours.
So, we will use "Unitary Method":
For 20 hours , Number of gallons of water is needed = 5
For 1 hour, Number of gallons of water is needed is given by
[tex]\frac{5}{20}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
For 48 hours, Number of gallons of water is needed is given by
[tex]\frac{1}{4}\times 48\\\\=12\ gallons[/tex]
Hence, there is 12 gallons of water , the faucet leak in 48 hours.
