Question

Plans say that 1800 gallons of water are recycled through the water rush ride each minute. Ms Luca wants to make a statement about the number of quarts of water that are recycled each second. What should her statement be? Show your work.

Answer 1

1800 gal converts to 7200 quarts, and divide that by 60 you get 120 quarts of water per second.

Answer 2

Well first you would have to divide 1800 by 60 (because there are 60 seconds in a minute). which would equal 30. then divide that by 4 which would be 7.5. and theres your answer. 7.5 quarts per second.
