It's not possible to calculate the current with the given data. "Amp" is not a unit for measuring resistors, and "C" is not a unit for measuring batteries. So we don't know the resistance of this circuit or the potential difference applied to it, and thus can't calculate the current. If we could, it might turn out to be 3 gallons, but that's just a reckless guess.
