convert
4 cups/min=qt/min
There are 4 cups in 1 quart, therefore
4 cups/min = 1 qt/min
:
18 mi/hr = ft/sec
Convert mi to ft by mult by 5280, divide that by no. of sec in 1 hr (3600)
%28%2818%2A5280%29%29%2F3600 = 26.4 ft/sec
:
4.8 qt/min = gal/hr
there are 4 qts in 1 gal, 60 min in 1 hr; therefore
4.8%2F4 * 72 = gal/hr
:
7 cups/min = qt/hr
there are 4 cups in a quart, 60 min 1 hr; therefore:
7%2F4 * 60 = 105 qt/hr

1.
+1+qt=4+cups+
so, 4+%28cups%2Fmin%29=1%28qt%2Fmin%29
2.
18%28mil%2Fhr%29=+x%28ft%2Fsec%29.... convert mil%2Fh to ft%2Fs multiplying your speed by 1.467 which is mil%2Fh=5280ft%2F3600sec=1.4666666666666666666666666666667=1.467+%28ft%2Fsec%29

........4.8qt=1.2gal and 1min=%281%2F60%29h


4.
7+%28cups%2Fmin%29=x%28qt%2Fhr%29.......1+Cup++=+0.25+qt [Fluid, US]
7%28cups%2Fmin%29=%287%2A0.25qt%29%2F%281%2F60%29hr%29
=%281.75qt%29%2F%28%281%2F60%29hr%29
=1.75%2A60%28qt%2Fh%29
=105%28qt%2Fh%29
