Answer
2 gallons per minute = 2,880 gallons per day.
Explanation
We want to convert 2 gallons per minute into gallons per day.
2 gallons/minute = ? gallons/day
The first step to solving this is to express the equivalence between day and minutes.
1 day = 24 hours = (24 × 60) minutes = 1,440 minutes
So,
1 day = 1,440 minutes
we can then do the conversion easily by mathematical relation presented as
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2\frac{gallons}{\text{ minute}} \\ \text{But, 1 day = 1,440 minutes, hence,} \\ \frac{1440\text{ minutes}}{1\text{ day}}=1 \\ 2\frac{gallons}{\text{ minute}}\times1=2\frac{gallons}{\text{ minute}}\times\frac{1440\text{ minutes}}{1\text{ day}} \\ \text{The minutes cancel and we are left with gallons/day in the end} \\ 2\frac{gallons}{\text{ minute}}\times1440\frac{\text{ minutes}}{day} \\ =2880\frac{gallons}{day} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, 2 gallons per minute = 2,880 gallons per day.
Hope this Helps!!!
