The Johnson family had a 4,392-gallon swimming pool installed last month. They are filling the pool at a rate of 2 pints per second. How fast are they filling the pool in gallons per day?

2 pints=0.25 gallons
1 day=86400 seconds

0.25/sec=g/86400

g=86400x0.25/1
=21600 gallons per day

The Johnson family are filling 21600 gallons per day.
