Answer:

225 liters

Explanation:

There is 25 liters in 20 seconds, so you keep adding 20 seconds while adding 25 liters each time. 180 = 3 minutes

25 20

50 40

75 60

100 80

125 100

150 120

175 140

200 160

225 180

1 minute = 60 seconds.

3 minutes x 60 seconds = 180 seconds.

180 seconds / 20 = 9

25 liters x 9 = 225

Total water in 3 minutes = 225 liters
