A regular toilet uses = 3.2 gallons of water per flush.

So, after 375 flushes, water used will be = $3.2\times375=1200$ gallons

A low flow toilet uses = 1.6 gallons of water per flush.

So, after 375 flushes, water used will be = $1.6\times375=600$ gallons

Hence, the difference between the number of gallons used by the regular toilet and the low flow toilet after 375 flushes = $1200-600$ = 600 gallons
