Question

A cistern is leaking 0.25 liters of water per minute. Approximately how many gallons of water is the cistern losing per hour?

Answer 1

Hello,


`0.25 (l)/(min) = (0.25\ l)/( (1\ min)/(60)) =15\ (l)/(h) \\ = \frac{15\ (l)/(h) }{3.78541\ \frac{l} {US\ gallon} })\\ = 3,96258265... (US\ gallon)/(h)`
