Answer: 16.5 gallons of water.

Explanation:

If it was me. I would be setting up as a table to keep my work organized.

So first we find how much 1 minute is.

15g : 10m

15/10 : 10m/10

1.5g : 1m

Then I multiply how many minutes there are.

1.5g x 11 : 1m x 1

16.5g : 11m

And there we find the answer of 16.5 gallons.
