To find the percentage increase in the amount of water Brinlyn drank per day, we can use the formula:
Percent change = (amount of change / original amount) * 100
The amount of change is 40 oz - 32 oz = 8 oz.
The original amount is 32 oz.
Plugging these values into the formula:
Percent change = (8 oz / 32 oz) * 100 = 25%
Therefore, Brinlyn increased the amount of water she drank per day by 25%.
