Question

Convert 24 gallons per hour to liters per minute

Answer 1

To convert gallons per hour to liters per minute, you can use the following conversion factors:

1 gallon = 3.78541 liters
1 hour = 60 minutes

Now, let's perform the conversion:

\[
24 \text{ gallons/hour} \times \frac{3.78541 \text{ liters}}{1 \text{ gallon}} \times \frac{1 \text{ hour}}{60 \text{ minutes}}
\]

Calculating this step-by-step:

1. Convert gallons to liters:
\[
24 \text{ gallons/hour} \times 3.78541 \text{ liters/gallon} = 90.96084 \text{ liters/hour}
\]

2. Convert hours to minutes:
\[
90.96084 \text{ liters/hour} \div 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 1.516014 \text{ liters/minute}
\]

Therefore, 24 gallons per hour is approximately **1.52 liters per minute** (rounded to two decimal places).
