B ) For 1 gallon of water , machine will take 3  hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

∵ For every 9 hours , machines uses 3 gallons of water

∴ For           1  hour   , machines uses [tex]\frac{3}{9}[/tex] gallons of water

Or, For 1 hours machine uses  [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] gallons of water

I.e  For 1 hours machine uses 0.33 gallons of water

Now, Again

∵ For 3 gallons of water , machine takes 9 hours

∴ For 1 gallon of water , machine will take [tex]\frac{9}{3}[/tex] hours

I.e For 1 gallon of water , machine will take 3  hours

Hence ,

A ) For 1 hours machine uses 0.33 gallons of water
