Question

Convert to find the equivalent rate.

60 tablespoons
hour
=

teaspoons
minute

Answer 1

To convert from tablespoons per hour to teaspoons per minute, we can use the fact that:

1 tablespoon = 3 teaspoons

Next, we need to convert hours to minutes:

1 hour = 60 minutes

Now, we can perform the conversion step-by-step:

1. Start with the given rate:
\[
60 \text{ tablespoons/hour}
\]

2. Convert tablespoons to teaspoons:
\[
60 \text{ tablespoons/hour} \times 3 \text{ teaspoons/tablespoon} = 180 \text{ teaspoons/hour}
\]

3. Now convert hours to minutes:
\[
180 \text{ teaspoons/hour} \div 60 \text{ minutes/hour} = 3 \text{ teaspoons/minute}
\]

Thus, the equivalent rate is:
\[
60 \text{ tablespoons/hour} = 3 \text{ teaspoons/minute}
\]
