Answer:
300 milliliters per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Uche pumps gasoline at a rate of 18 liters per min. We are asked to convert Uche's rate in mililiters per sec.
We know that 1 liter equals 1000 ml.
[tex]\text{Uche's pumping rate}=\frac{18\text{ liters}}{\text{ min}}\times \frac{1000\text{ ml}}{\text{ liter}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Uche's pumping rate}=\frac{18000\text{ ml}}{\text{ min}}[/tex]
We also know that 1 minute equals 60 seconds.
[tex]\text{Uche's pumping rate}=\frac{18000\text{ ml}}{\text{ min}}\times \frac{1 min}}{60\text{ sec}}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Uche's pumping rate}=\frac{300\text{ ml}}{\text{ sec}}[/tex]
Therefore, Uche's pumping rate is 300 milliliters per second.
