Two water tanks are leaking. tank a has leaked 1/16 of a gallon in 1/12 minute, and tank b has leaked 3/80 of a gallon in 1/30 minute. which tank is leaking faster?

  Tank B

Step-by-step explanation:

In gallons per minute, the leak rates are ...

  Tank A: (1/16 gal)/(1/12 min) = 12/16 gal/min = 3/4 gal/min

  Tank B: (3/80 gal)/(1/30 min) = 90/80 gal/min = 9/8 gal/min

Tank A leaks less than 1 gallon per minute, while Tank B leaks more than 1 gallon per minute.

Tank B is leaking faster.
