\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "As the Blizzard of '96 snow melted, the Potomac River was flowing at a rate of 156 millions gallon per minute. This would have filled Sun Devil Stadium, home of Super Bowl XXX, in 1 minute, 25 seconds. The Ohio River, on the other hand, would have filled the stadium in just 51 seconds. What was the Ohio's flow rate, in gallons per minute?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let \"g\" = number of gallons to fill stadium
\n" ); document.write( "\"+g+=+%28156%2F60%29%2A85+\" gallons
\n" ); document.write( "\"+g+=+221+\"
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "Let \"+r+\" = Ohio's flow rate
\n" ); document.write( "\"+221+=+r%2A51+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r+=+221%2F51+\" gallons/sec
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r+=+%28221%2F51%29%2A60+\" gallons/min
\n" ); document.write( "\"+r+=+260+\" gallons/min
\n" ); document.write( "The Ohio's flow rate is 260 gallons/min
\n" ); document.write( "
