Amount of water that the faucet leaks in 1 week = 42 gallons

That means Amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in 7 days = 42 gallons So The amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in 1 day = (42/7) gallons = 6 gallons Then The amount of water that the faucet in Kali's house leaks in 3 days = 6 * 3 gallons = 18 gallons

So it can said from the above deduction that the amount of water leaked by the faucet in Kali's house is 18 gallons.

hope this help .-.
