About Converting Gallon per Seconds to Cup per Minutes
Gallon per Seconds and Cup 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. Both are volumetric flow rate units.
Formula
cup per minutes = gallon per seconds × 960
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 gallon per seconds equals 0.003785411784 base units, and 1 cup per minutes equals 0.000003943137275 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct gallon per seconds-to-cup per minutes factor of 960.
Simple example
1 gal/s × 960 = 960 cup/min
1 gallon per seconds = 960 cup per minutes.
Real-world example
60 gal/s × 960 = 57,600 cup/min
60 gallon per seconds = 57,600 cup per minutes.

Frequently asked questions
How many cup per minutes are in 1 gallon per seconds?
1 gallon per seconds equals 960 cup per minutes, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert gallon per seconds to cup per minutes?
Multiply the gallon per seconds value by 960. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert cup per minutes back to gallon per seconds?
Use the reverse factor: 1 cup per minutes equals 0.0010416667 gallon per seconds. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a gallon per seconds?
Gallon per Seconds (gal/s) is a unit of flow rate.
What is a cup per minutes?
Cup per Minutes (cup/min) is a unit of flow rate.
Is the gallon per seconds to cup per minutes conversion exact?
Yes. Both gallon per seconds and cup per minutes are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 960 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
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.
