A five-gallon bucket was completely filled with water. The bucket has a small leak that causes it to lose 8 fluid ounces of water every 15 minutes. If the leak continues at the same rate, how long will it take for the bucket to become half full? 1 gal = 128 fl oz

600 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with a bucket that is completely full- it has five gallons of water.

5 gallons of water = 5 (128) fl oz = 640 fl oz

Half of 640 fl oz is 320 fl oz, which is the amount we are looking for.

So, we divide to find how many times it will take for the bucket to become half-full, which is 40 times.

Now, we multiply 40 by 15 minutes, so we get 40 × 15 = 600 minutes

it is x equals 3   plese mark me really need it
