a spring flows at a rate of 75 gallons per minute. about how many hours does it take to produce 1,000,000 gallons

At 75 gals./min., the hourly rate would be 75 * 60 min.

75 gal. * 60 * x hrs. = 1,000,000

Solve for x.

thanks!!

Write a function that accepts two positive integers as parameters. The first integer is the number of heads and the second integer is the number of legs of all the creatures in a farm which consists of chickens and dogs

To find out how many hours it takes for the spring to produce 1,000,000 gallons, we can use the given flow rate of the spring.

First, we need to convert the flow rate from gallons per minute to gallons per hour since we're looking for the time in hours.

There are 60 minutes in an hour, so:

75 gallons/minute * 60 minutes/hour = 4500 gallons/hour

This means the spring produces water at a rate of 4500 gallons per hour.

Now we can determine the time it takes to produce 1,000,000 gallons by dividing the desired amount by the flow rate:

1,000,000 gallons / 4500 gallons/hour = 222.22 hours (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, it takes approximately 222.22 hours for the spring to produce 1,000,000 gallons of water.
