Mr. Green’s hobby was restoring old houses. He recently purchased an old rundown house that needed a lot of repair, especially with the plumbing. The kitchen faucet dripped all day and night. It intrigued Mr. Green how much water dripped from this faucet in one day, but he surely didn’t want to sit and watch the faucet drip all day. So he figured that if he could discover how much water dripped within a certain time span, he could calculate the dripping rate for any time span. In his first observation he noted that 6 ounces of water dripped in 10 minutes.

A) Using Mr. Green’s observation, can you help him figure out how much water would have dripped in only 5 minutes?
