Convert gallon / minute to cubic yard / second

Learn how to convert 1 gallon / minute to cubic yard / second step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{g a l l o n}{m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{c u b i c y a r d}{s e c o n d})

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d})

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{g a l l o n}{m i n u t e}) = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{c u b i c y a r d}{s e c o n d}) = 0.764554857984 (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = 0.764554857984 (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{g a l l o n}{m i n u t e}) = x (\frac{c u b i c y a r d}{s e c o n d})

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} \times (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = x \times 0.764554857984 \times (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s}) = x \cdot 0.764554857984 \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s}) = x \times 0.764554857984 \times (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Conversion Equation

\frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} = x \times 0.764554857984

Switch sides

x \times 0.764554857984 = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0}

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.764554857984})

x \times 0.764554857984 \times \frac{1.0}{0.764554857984} = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0} \times \frac{1.0}{0.764554857984}

Cancel

x \times 0.764554857984 \times \frac{1.0}{0.764554857984} = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3} \times 1.0}{60.0 \times 0.764554857984}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{60.0 \times 0.764554857984}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0000960228 \approx 9.6023 \times 10^{- 5}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{g a l l o n}{m i n u t e}) \approx 9.6023 \times 10^{- 5} (\frac{c u b i c y a r d}{s e c o n d})
