7 gal / 1 min = x qt / 1 sec

Question

1. find x
2. pls show work
3. thxxxx

Answer 1

Use factor labeling conversion: You cancel units which tells you where to put factors that will do the conversion my multiplication:

gal/min *(qt./gal)(min/s) = qt/s Putting in the conversion factors so that numerator and denominators are equal:

4 qts = 1 gal and 60 s = 1 min

7gal/min(4 qt/gal)(1min/60s) = .457 qt/s

Please consider a tutor. Take care.

Answer 2

1 gallon = 4quarts

1 hour = 60 minutes

7 gallons per minute = 7(4) quarts per 60 seconds

28 qts/60 seconds

= 28/60 qts/sec

= 7/15 qts/sec

x=7/15 = 0.4666... = about 0.467

7 gall/min

=28 qrts/min

= 28 qrts/60 sec

= 28/60 qrts/sec

= 7/15 qrts/sec
