About Converting Cubic foot per Seconds to Tablespoon per Minutes
Cubic foot per Seconds and Tablespoon per Minutes 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
tablespoon per minutes = cubic foot per seconds × 114900.779221
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 tablespoon per minutes equals 2.464461e-7 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct cubic foot per seconds-to-tablespoon per minutes factor of 114900.779221.
Simple example
1 ft3/s × 114900.7792 = 114,900.7792 tbsp/min
1 cubic foot per seconds = 114,900.7792 tablespoon per minutes.
Real-world example
60 ft3/s × 114900.7792 = 6,894,046.753 tbsp/min
60 cubic foot per seconds = 6,894,046.753 tablespoon per minutes.

What is a cubic foot per seconds?
Cubic foot per Seconds (ft3/s) measures volumetric flow rate. One cubic foot of volume passing a point every second. It is classified as a US customary flow-rate unit.
What is a tablespoon per minutes?
Tablespoon per Minutes (tbsp/min) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the cubic foot per seconds to tablespoon per minutes conversion exact?

Where is the cubic foot per seconds still used today?
United States
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.
