Question

Water flows through a pipe at a rate of 91 fluid ounces every 2.5 weeks. Express this rate of flow in cups per hour. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (HEELLPP)

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, we convert:

• ounces to cups
• weeks to hours

Result of conversion:

• 91 fluid ounces = 11.375 cups (1 cup = 8 ounces)
• 2.5 weeks = 420 hours (1 week = 168 hours)

To get the rate, we must divide the number of cups by number of hours

11.375 cups / 420 hours = 0.027 cups per hour = 0.03 cups per hour (approximated)

Hope that helps!
