Answer:

2.8 liters of water

Explanation:

Since the amount of water is proportional to the time, we can determine how much water in liters the tap can pour in 7/15 minutes using a proportion:

6 liters / 1 minutes = x liters / (7/15) minutes

(6 = x / (7/15)) * (7/15)
14/5 = 2.8 = x

Thus, the tap can pour 2.8 liters of water in 7/15 minutes.
