An above ground swimming pool is leaking. after half an hour the pool has leaked 7/8 of a gallon of water. how many gallons of water does a pool leak per hour. btw it is supposed to be a ratio

  7/4 gallon per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

If the leak rate is a constant, in twice the time, twice the amount of water will have leaked.

  2 × 1/2 hour = 1 hour

  2 × 7/8 gallon = 7/4 gallon

So, the leak rate is 7/4 gallon per hour.
