It is recommended that hikers Drake 24 ounces of water an hour if I canteen has 24 ounces of water how much should the amount of water in the canteen change every 10 minutes?
If a hiker is recommended to drink 24 ounces of water per hour, then in 10 minutes they should ideally drink 24 ounces/60 minutes * 10 minutes = 4 ounces of water.
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
To determine the amount of water that should be consumed every 10 minutes, we need to calculate the rate of water intake for an hour and then convert it to 10-minute intervals.
It is recommended that hikers drink 24 ounces of water per hour. To find the rate of water intake per minute, we divide 24 ounces by 60 minutes:
24 ounces / 60 minutes = 0.4 ounces/minute
Now, to determine the amount that should be consumed every 10 minutes, we multiply the rate of water intake per minute by 10:
0.4 ounces/minute * 10 minutes = 4 ounces
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes if the hiker is following the recommended intake of 24 ounces per hour.
To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to calculate the hourly rate and then divide it by 6 (as there are six 10-minute intervals in an hour).
First, we will calculate the amount of water needed per hour. Given the recommendation of 24 ounces per hour, we can assume that the hiker should consume 24 ounces of water in 60 minutes.
24 ounces/hour / 60 minutes = 0.4 ounces/minute
Next, we divide the hourly rate by 6 to find the amount of water needed every 10 minutes.
0.4 ounces/minute / 6 = 0.067 ounces/10 minutes
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 0.067 ounces every 10 minutes to keep up with the recommended hydration rate for hikers.
