🔍 Key Concepts

• Definition of one ton of refrigeration in BTU/hr • Relationship between BTU/hr and tons of refrigeration • Simple division of heat removal rate by BTU/hr per ton

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: how many BTU per hour does ONE ton of refrigeration represent? • Once you know BTU/hr for one ton, how many of those "tons" are contained in 48,000 BTU/hr? • Does your calculated tonnage match exactly one of the multiple‑choice options?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are using BTU per HOUR per ton, not BTU per minute or per day • Confirm you remember the standard value (BTU/hr) that defines 1 ton of refrigeration used in marine and HVAC problems • After dividing 48,000 BTU/hr by the BTU/hr per ton, double‑check that the units cancel correctly and give tons, not BTU or BTU/hr
