Question

The canal carried about 80 gallons of water per minute from the spring. How many gallons would the canal carry in 1 hour

Answer 1

4,800 gallons.

Explanation:

There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so multiply 80 (gallons/minute carried by the canal) by 60 (the amount of minutes in 1 hour), and you’ll get 4,800 gallons.
