I have a dosing pump that puts out 1.1ml per minute. How long would it take to dump a gallon? Sorry I'm old and stupid!!

1 US gallon = 3785.4118 mL

/ 1.1 = 3441.28

would be like 57.35 hours ?

1 gallon =3785.41178ml
 
1.1 ml per minute / 3785.4117 = 3441.28336363
 
so 3441.29 minutes
 
3441.29 / 60 = 57.3547 hours
 
So roughly 57 hours if my math is correct
