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