A water tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours every day . What is the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days?

1 answer

In one day, which is 24 hours, the water tank will decrease by 10 gallons/3 hours * 8 hours = <<10/3*8=26.666666666666668>>26.67 gallons.
So the total change in the amount of water in the tank for 6 days would be 6 days * 26.67 gallons/day = <<6*26.67=160.02>>160.02 gallons. Answer: \boxed{160}.
