Question

240 gallons/minute = gallons/second

Answer 1

To convert gallons per minute (gpm) to gallons per second (gps), you can use the conversion factor that there are 60 seconds in a minute.

To convert 240 gallons/minute to gallons/second:

\[
\text{Gallons/second} = \frac{240 \text{ gallons/minute}}{60 \text{ seconds/minute}} = 4 \text{ gallons/second}
\]

So, 240 gallons/minute is equivalent to 4 gallons/second.
