It depends on how big the leak is, but if it is a dripping leak, one drip at a time is lost, then between 1 to 10 mL can be lost depending on how fast the dripping is, in a minute, and after about 10 minutes, a whole graduated cylinder can be filled, and even a water bottle. If the leak drips very fast, then a lot of water bottles can be lost within a couple of hours, and if left unchecked for a while, buckets and buckets can be filled from a whole month of a leaky faucet.

You left your water running seven hours how many gallons did that waste?

To know for certain, you'd need to measure your water flow from your faucet at the rate it was turned on, but if its a newer faucet, then if you have pretty good water pressure (60 psi), the faucet will only flow at 2.2 gallons per minute. Thus if you had the faucet fully open for seven hours you may have wasted as much as 92 gallons.
