Answer: 6 minutes

=========================================

Work Shown

1/3 gallon : 1 minute

3*(1/3 gallon) : 3*(1 minute)

1 gallon : 3 minutes

2*(1 gallon) : 2*(3 minutes)

2 gallons : 6 minutes

-------------

Explanations:

  • 1/3 gallon per minute means 1/3 gallon per every 1 minute
  • In step 2, I multiplied both sides by 3 to clear out the fraction
  • In step 4, I multiplied both sides by 2 to get "1 gallon" to turn into "2 gallons"
