Answer: 4 gallons per day

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the Snyder family uses up a 12 -gallon jug of milk every 3 days.

The rate at which they drink milk will be gotten by dividing the gallons of milk they drink by the number of days. This will be:

= 12/3

= 4 gallons per day

Therefore, the rate they use in taking milk is 4 gallons per day.
