The unit rate is: 8/3 gallons per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Time = 15 minutes
As the unit rate has to be calculated per hour so, time has to be converted into hours
[tex]15\ min = \frac{15}{60}\ hours\\= \frac{1}{4}\ hour[/tex]
Water leakage = 2/3 gallons
[tex]Unit\ rate = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\= \frac{2}{3} * 4\\= \frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Hence,
The unit rate is: 8/3 gallons per hour
