Answer: Rate of water flow is 12/5 gallon per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Volume of faucet pot = 2 gallon

Time taken to fill the faucet pot = 5/6 of a minute = (5/6) minute.

Rate of water flow:

Volume of faucet pot / time taken

= 2 gallon ÷ (5/6) minute

= 2 gallon × (6/5) minutes

= (12 /5) gallon / minute

= 2 2/5 gallon / minute

Hence rate of water flow is 12/5 gallon per minute.
