Answer:

Therefore 90 gallons will they lose in an hour.

Explanation:

Given:

A damaged tug boat was leaking 1.5 gallons per minute

i.e 1.5 gallons water = In one minute

To Find:

How much gallons water = In one hour

i.e How much gallons water = 60 minute

Solution:

We Know that

One hour = 60 minute

And Given that 1.5 gallons water = In one minute

In 60 minute we will have the loss = 60 Ă— 1.5

= 90 gallons

Therefore 90 gallons will they lose in an hour.
