Answer:
3,406.5 litres/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
The liquid is being poured at a rate of 15 gallons per minute.
1 minute = 1/60 hour
Thus, the rate can be written as:
15 gallons pet 1/60 hour
We are told that one gallon is approximately 3.785 liters.
Thus;
15 gallons = 15 × 3.785 litres = 56.775 litres.
Thus, the rate is;
56.775 litres per 1/60 hour
We want to find in litres/hr.
By proportion, we have it as;
(56.775 ÷ 1/60)/1 = 56.775 × 60 = 3,406.5 litres/hr
Rational. Not whole or integer because its an exact measurement and not irrational because it CAN be expressed as a ratio (fraction, decimal measurement )
