Question

A flow of 650 gpm would be approximately ________ MGD?

a. 0.4772
b. 0.936
c. 1.714
d. 1.923
e. 650

Answer 1

To convert gpm to MGD, divide the flow rate by 7.48 and then divide by 1,000,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert gpm to MGD, we need to divide the flow rate by 7.48 (which is the number of gallons in a cubic foot) and then divide by 1,000,000 (which is the number of gallons in a million gallons).

So, 650 gpm / 7.48 / 1,000,000 = 0.08682 MGD (approximately).

Therefore, the answer is 0.087 MGD (approximately).
