Answer:

20 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First start off by dividing 48 by 12 to see how many times 12 goes into 48.

48 / 12 = 4

now that you know that 12 goes into 48 4 times, multiply 4 by 5 to see how many gallons the leaky faucet will fill in 48 hours.

4 x 5 = 20

therefore the answer is 20 gallons

I hope this helps ^^
