Convert liter / second to gallon / hour

Learn how to convert 1 liter / second to gallon / hour step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

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

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{l i t e r}{s e c o n d}) = 10^{- 3} (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = 10^{- 3} (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Right side: 1.0 (\frac{g a l l o n}{h o u r}) = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

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

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 10^{- 3} \times (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d}) = x \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{c u b i c m e t e r}{s e c o n d})

Or

1.0 \cdot 10^{- 3} \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s}) = x \cdot \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (\frac{m^{3}}{s}) = x \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times (\frac{m^{3}}{s})

Conversion Equation

10^{- 3} = x \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

10^{- 3} = x \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 10^{- 3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}

Simplify

1.0 = x \times \frac{4.40488377086}{3.6 \times 10^{3}}

Switch sides

x \times \frac{4.40488377086}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} = 1.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{4.40488377086})

x \times \frac{4.40488377086}{3.6 \times 10^{3}} \times \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{4.40488377086} = \times \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{4.40488377086}

Cancel

x \times \frac{4.40488377086 \times 3.6 \times 10^{3}}{3.6 \times 10^{3} \times 4.40488377086} = \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{4.40488377086}

Simplify

x = \frac{3.6 \times 10^{3}}{4.40488377086}

Solve

x

x \approx 817.27468584 \approx 8.1727 \times 10^{2}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{l i t e r}{s e c o n d}) \approx 8.1727 \times 10^{2} (\frac{g a l l o n}{h o u r})
