suppose 27 gallons of water came out of a pipe in 9 minutes. What is the rate in gallons per minute?

1 answer

To determine the rate in gallons per minute, we need to divide the total amount of water (27 gallons) by the amount of time (9 minutes).

27 gallons รท 9 minutes = 3 gallons per minute.

Therefore, the rate of water flow is 3 gallons per minute.
