Given:
3 qt/min
To find:
The conversion of 3 qt/min to gallons per hour.
Solution:
We know that,
1 quart = 0.25 gallons
60 minutes = 1 hour
1 minute = [tex]\dfrac{1}{60}[/tex] hour
Using these conversions, we get
[tex]3 \dfrac{qt}{min}=\dfrac{3\times 0.25}{\dfrac{1}{60}}\ \dfrac{gal}{h}[/tex]
[tex]3 \dfrac{qt}{min}=3\times 60\times 0.25\ \dfrac{gal}{h}[/tex]
[tex]3\ qt/min=45\ gal/h[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is A.
