To find the number of pints per hour that the hose fills the tub, we need to convert both the rate of filling and the time.
The hose fills at a rate of 4 ounces per minute. To convert this to pints per minute, we divide by 16 (since 16 ounces = 1 pint):
4 ounces per minute / 16 = 0.25 pints per minute.
Next, we need to convert from minutes to hours. There are 60 minutes in an hour. So, to convert from pints per minute to pints per hour, we need to multiply by 60:
0.25 pints per minute * 60 = 15 pints per hour.
Therefore, the hose will fill the tub at a rate of 15 pints per hour.
To find the number of pints per hour that the hose will fill the tub, we need to convert the fill rate from ounces per minute to pints per hour.
First, let's convert the fill rate from ounces per minute to pints per minute:
4 ounces/minute x (1 pint/16 ounces) = 0.25 pints/minute
Next, we need to convert the fill rate from pints per minute to pints per hour:
0.25 pints/minute x (60 minutes/1 hour) = 15 pints/hour
Therefore, the hose will fill the tub at a rate of 15 pints per hour.
To calculate the number of pints per hour that the hose will fill the tub, we need to convert the rate from ounces per minute to pints per hour.
First, let's calculate the number of pints filled per minute:
4 ounces per minute = 4/16 pints per minute
= 0.25 pints per minute
Next, we need to convert from minutes to hours:
1 hour = 60 minutes
So, to find the number of pints filled per hour, we can multiply the number of pints per minute by the number of minutes in an hour:
0.25 pints per minute * 60 minutes per hour
= 15 pints per hour
Therefore, the hose will fill the tub at a rate of 15 pints per hour.
