a hose fills a tub at a rate of 4 ounces per minute. how many pints per hour will the hose fill the tub?

1 answer

There are 8 pints in 1 gallon and 128 ounces in 1 gallon.

So, the hose fills the tub at a rate of 4/128 = 1/32 gallon per minute.
There are 60 minutes in 1 hour.

Therefore, the hose will fill the tub at a rate of (1/32) * 60 = <<(1/32)*60=1.875>>1.875 pints per hour. Answer: \boxed{1.875}.
