You can put this solution on YOUR website!
5.7 gallons/hours = ____ cups/min

First, there are 4 cups in a quart and 4 quarts in a gallon, so you have 16 cups for each gallon. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so just replace the word "gallon" with "16 cups", and replace the word "hours" with "60 minutes."
+5.7+%28gallons%29%2F%28hours%29+=+5.7+%2816+cups%29%2F%2860+minutes%29+
%285.7%2A16%29%2F60 = 1.53 cups/min
