    276,000 kg per minute

    Explanation:

    From the question each booster burns 690,400 kg of propellant in 2.5 min.

    To calculate the amount of propellant each booster burns in a minute, simply divide 690,400 kg by 2.5 min.

    =276,160 kg/min or 276,160 kg per minute

    thus for every 1 min, 276,160 kg of propellant is burnt by each booster.
