suppose 27 gallons of water came out of a pipe in 9 minutes. What is the rate in gallons per minute?
To determine the rate in gallons per minute, we need to divide the total amount of water (27 gallons) by the amount of time (9 minutes).
27 gallons ÷ 9 minutes = 3 gallons per minute.
Therefore, the rate of water flow is 3 gallons per minute.
