It is dealing with conversions....i need help???

Question

32.1 gallons of water flow past a given point in Cicero Creek every second. How many milliliters flow past that point each minute?

Answer 1

I'll let you do the math.

But the general rule to convert units is to make a ratio of the units, such as 60 min/1 hr. and multiply it out letting the units cancel each other out in the numerator and denominators.

For Example (it's hard to show on a computer)
1 hr * 60 min/ 1 hr * 60 sec / 1 min = 3600 sec

Set up ratios for liters and gallons, seconds and minutes and multiply it out.

Answer 2

One (1) gallon of water equals 37.85.4118 Milliters

Given

32.1 gallons of water passes a given point every second

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

32.1 x 3785.4118 = 121511.7188 millileters passes this point every second.

The answer is 121511.72 Rounded up to two decimal places.

Answer 3

1 gal = 3.785 L = 3 785 mL
32.1 gal = 124387.5 mL

mL/s = 7463250 mL/s

Answer 4

It seems to me that you are not doing your homework but instead taking advantage of kindness of people to do your homework for you. You lazy girl.

Answer 5

7291065.6 ml
32.1*3785.6= 121517.76 ml per second
121517.76ml *60secs = 7291065.6 ml per minute

1Gallon = 3785.6ml
