In this article I will show you how to convert 388 cubic yards per hour into litres per second. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 388 yd³ph to lps. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Cubic yards per hour to Litres per second
A cubic yards per hour is smaller than a litres per second. I know that a yd³ph is smaller than a lps because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 388 cubic yards per hour into litres per second, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for yd³ph to lps is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 388 yd³ph to lps by multiplying 0.212376
by the number of cubic yards per hour we have, which is 388.
So, the answer to the question "what is 388 cubic yards per hour in litres per second?" is 82.401888 lps.
