A test bottle containing just seeded dilution water has its DO level drop by 1.0 mg/L in a five-day test. A 300-ml BOD bottle just filled with 15 ml of wastewater and the rest seeded dilution water (sometimes expressed as a dilution of 1:20) experiences a drop of 7.2 mg/L in the same period. What would be the five day BOD of the waste?
