About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Metric tablespoon per Decades
Cubic foot per Seconds and Metric tablespoon per Decades 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 tablespoon per decades = cubic foot per seconds × 595728912463
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 tablespoon per decades equals 4.753311e-14 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-metric tablespoon per decades factor of 595728912463.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 595728912500 = 595,728,912,500 metric tbsp/decade
1 cubic foot per seconds = 595,728,912,500 metric tablespoon per decades.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 595728912500 = 3.574373e+13 metric tbsp/decade
60 cubic foot per seconds = 3.574373e+13 metric tablespoon per decades.

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.
