It is recommended that hikers drink 24 ounces of water and hour. If a canteen has 24 ounces of water, how much should the amount of water in the canteen change every 10 minutes
If hikers are recommended to drink 24 ounces of water per hour, it means they should be drinking 24/60 = <<24/60=0.4>>0.4 ounces of water per minute.
As there are 10 minutes in a 10-minute interval, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 0.4 * 10 = <<0.4*10=4>>4 ounces. Answer: \boxed{4}.
To figure out how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to determine how many 10-minute intervals are in an hour.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can divide 60 minutes by 10 minutes to find that there are 6 intervals in an hour.
Now, let's calculate how much water needs to be consumed in each 10-minute interval. If hikers are recommended to drink 24 ounces of water per hour, and there are 6 intervals in an hour, we can divide 24 ounces by 6 intervals.
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to first figure out the amount of water hikers should drink in 10 minutes.
The recommendation is to drink 24 ounces of water per hour. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, this means hikers should drink 24 ounces / 60 minutes = 0.4 ounces of water per minute.
Now, we can calculate the amount of water hikers should drink in 10 minutes by multiplying the rate per minute by the number of minutes:
0.4 ounces/minute * 10 minutes = 4 ounces
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes to meet the recommended intake for hikers.
