Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

81 gallons per 9 minutes

This can be thought of as a fraction:

[tex]\frac{81gallons}{9 minutes}[/tex]

divide the top and bottom of the fraction by 9 to make the bottom 1

[tex]\frac{9 gallons}{1 minute}[/tex]

remove the gallons per minute to a separate fraction

9 [tex]\frac{gallons}{minute}[/tex]
