    Those TWO pumps together work at a rate 100 gallons per minute.

    You have basement dimensions, but to get volume as gallons, you need to know:

    This is wrong: 231 cubic feet = 1 gallon

    Know these: 231 cubic inches = 1 gallon, 12 inches = 1 foot

    , cubic feet, the volume of water in the basement - which seems to be given in two sections.

    You would use a uniform rates formula like RT=V for rate, time, volume.

    You would use it as T=V/R.

    For a total of 14681.9 gallons. At 50 gallons per minute it will take 294 minutes which is about 5 hours and hence with 2 pumps about 2.5 hours.
