Water drips from a faucet at a rate of 41 drops/minute. assuming there are 15,000 drops in a gallon, how many minutes would it take for the dripping faucet to fill a 1.00‑gallon bucket

                    365.85 Minutes

                   According to statement the rate of drops from faucet is,

                                            R  =  41 Drops / 1 Minute

And 1 Gallon can be filled by 15000 drops. Therefore, the time for filling 1 Gallon volume by 15000 drops is calculated as,

                                   41 Drops fall in  =  1 Minute

So,

                           15000 Drops will fall in  =   X Minutes

Solving for X,

                     X =  (15000 Drops × 1 Minute) ÷ 41 Drops

                      X =  365.85 Minutes

ANSWER: 370 minutes

It will take 366 minutes for the bucket to fill but to the correct number of significant figures THE ANSWER IS 370 minutes
