    153.6 Gallons

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The formula for exponential decay is A=P (1-r) ^t. In this equation, that would be written like A=300 (0.80) ^3. 0.80 to the third power would be 0.512 You would then multiply that by the three hundred. Which would get you 153.6.

    'A' would be the answer.

    'P' is the amount you start with.

    'R' is the percent in decimal form.

    'T' is equal to the amount of time in years that passes.
