Answer: 16,425 gallons are wasted a year
Step-by-step explanation:
First find out how many minutes there are in a year then multiply it by how much oz the faucet leaks every years then convert it into gallons.
There are 525,600 minutes in a year now multiply it by 4.
525,600 * 4 = 2,102,400 So there are more than 2 million oz wasted in a year so now convert it to gallons.
If there are 128 oz for every gallons the divide 2,102,400 by 128 to find out how many gallons are wasted a year.
2,102,400 / 128 = 16,425
