what is the formula for fuel consumption rate?

I need to know how to calculate fuel consumption rate in gallons per hour. If there is a general formula pleas let me know if it is specific for different aircraft i’m working with a cessna Model 172.

Thanks

fuel used ( in gallons)/ Time(in hours)= gallon per hour
