About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Metric cup per Months
Cubic foot per Seconds and Metric cup per Months both measure volumetric flow rate — how much volume passes a point over time — used to size pipes and pumps, monitor river or stream discharge, control industrial processes, and set medical infusion rates. Cubic foot per Seconds is most often used for the standard unit used by the us geological survey for reporting river and stream discharge at gauging stations.
Formula
metric cup per months = cubic foot per seconds × 297864456.232
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 cubic foot per seconds equals 0.028316846592 base units, and 1 metric cup per months equals 9.506622e-11 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-metric cup per months factor of 297864456.232.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 297864456.2 = 297,864,456.2 metric cup/mo
1 cubic foot per seconds = 297,864,456.2 metric cup per months.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 297864456.2 = 17,871,867,370 metric cup/mo
60 cubic foot per seconds = 17,871,867,370 metric cup per months.

What's the difference between volumetric and mass flow rate?
Volumetric flow rate measures the volume of fluid passing a point per unit time (for example, liters per second). Mass flow rate measures the mass instead. For a fluid of constant density the two are directly proportional, but for compressible fluids like gases, mass flow is often the more meaningful quantity.
