A water tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours every day. What is the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days?

The amount of water in the tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours. There are 24 hours in a day, so the amount of water in the tank decreases by 10/3= <<10/3=3.33>>3.33 gallons every hour.

After 6 days, the number of hours is 6*24= <<6*24=144>>144 hours.
So the total amount of water that decreases after 6 days is 3.33*144 = <<3.33*144=479.52>>479.52 gallons. Answer: \boxed{479.52}.

To find the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days, we need to calculate the change per day and then multiply it by the number of days.

Given that the water tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours, we first need to calculate the change per hour:
Change per hour = 10 gallons

Since there are 24 hours in a day, we can find the change per day:
Change per day = Change per hour * 24 hours = 10 gallons/hour * 24 hours = 240 gallons/day

Finally, multiplying the change per day by the number of days:
Total change in the amount of water = Change per day * Number of days = 240 gallons/day * 6 days = 1440 gallons

Therefore, the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days is 1440 gallons.

To find the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days, we need to calculate the change in the amount of water over each day and then sum up these changes.

The tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours. Since there are 24 hours in a day, we can determine how many times the tank decreases by 10 gallons in a day by dividing 24 by 3.

24 / 3 = 8

So, the tank decreases by 10 gallons 8 times in a day.

Now, we can determine the change in the amount of water in the tank per day:

10 gallons * 8 = 80 gallons

Since we want to calculate the total change in the amount of water over 6 days, we multiply the daily change by the number of days:

80 gallons * 6 days = 480 gallons

Therefore, the total change in the amount of water in the tank after 6 days is a decrease of 480 gallons.
