Answer:
3.2 liters
Explanation:
The first thing we want to do is find the amount of water it leaks hourly
To do so we divide the amount of water it leaks in 3 hours ( .48 ) by 3
.48/3 = .16
So the faucet leaks .16 liters per hour
Now to find how much water the faucet leaks in 20 hours
To do this we simply multiply 20 by the hourly leakage amount (.16)
.16 * 20 = 3.2
So in 20 hours the faucet would have leaked 3.2 liters of water
