Question 347523: a spring flows at a rate of 75 gallons per minute. about how many hours does it take to produce 1,000,000 gallons? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 75 gallons a minute is 4500 gallons an hour, since there are 60 minutes in an hour...we divide 4500 into a million to find the mumber of hours...
1,000,000 / 4500 = 222 2/9 hours
