Well ...there are 4 quarts in a gallon....so we can start with that

3.5 qts = 1 gallon
               -------
                4 quarts

So you would divide 3.5 by 4...this is how many gallons you have.

But this...is gallons per minute...you want gallons per hour

.875 gallons/min = 60 minutes
                               --------
                               1 hour

Meaning you would multiply .875 by 60...to get how many gallons per hour

Makes sense right? you do THIS many gallons in a minute....so you multiply by 60 minutes to see how many you do in an hour!

understandable?
