GPM only represents the volume of water, and you cannot deduce pressure from that alone. You would need to include line diamiter to the GPM to have enough data to deduce pressure. Fancy math would then follow.

"Gallon per minute" is a measure of 'flow rate', such as the rate at which the hose at the filling station
delivers gas to the filler-intake on the back of your car.

"Part per million" is a measure of how much of one substance is mixed into another substance, such as
how much arsenic is in your tap water.

The two units have different dimensions, and are used to measure completely different quantities. Neither one
can be converted into the other one. That would be like trying to convert your age into gallons.

A gallon is a measure of volume whereas a pound is a measure of mass. The two measure different things and there is no universal conversion factor from one to the other. For example, the mass of one gallon of water will be quite different from that of one gallon of air.

Consequntly, there is no conversion from gallons per minute to pounds per hour.

'Gallon' is a unit of volume or occupied space. 'BTU' is a unit of work or energy. The two units measure different quantities. Neither one can be converted into the other one.

You can't convert that. Minutes and hours are compatible units, but gallons and inches are not, since gallons is a unit of volume, while inches is a unit of length.
