Answer:

9.1 gallons of water.

Explanation:

A standard showerhead dispenses 21 gallons of water in 30 mins. At this rate, how many gallons of water will a standard showerhead dispenses in 13 minutes?

30 minutes = 21 gallons

13 minutes = x gallons

Cross Multiply

30 minutes × x = 13 minutes × 21 gallons

x = 13 minutes × 21 gallons/30 minutes

x = 9.1 gallons of water

Therefore, a standard showerhead dispenses 9.1 gallons of water in 13 minutes.
