Question

40 gallons
second
=

pints
minute

Answer 1

To convert from gallons per second to pints per minute, you can follow these steps:

1. **Convert gallons to pints**:
- There are 8 pints in 1 gallon.

2. **Convert seconds to minutes**:
- There are 60 seconds in 1 minute.

Now let's perform the conversion:

\[
40 \text{ gallons/second} \times 8 \text{ pints/gallon} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute}
\]

Calculating this:

\[
40 \times 8 = 320 \text{ pints/second}
\]

Then, converting seconds to minutes:

\[
320 \text{ pints/second} \times 60 \text{ seconds/minute} = 19200 \text{ pints/minute}
\]

Therefore:

\[
40 \text{ gallons/second} = 19200 \text{ pints/minute}
\]
