It is recommended that hikers drink 24 ounces of water an hour. If a canteen has 24 ounces of water, how much should the amount of water in the canteen change every 10 minutes? (1 point)
To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to calculate the water intake per minute.
24 ounces of water per hour = 24/60 = 0.4 ounces of water per minute.
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 0.4 ounces every 10 minutes.
To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to calculate the amount of water that should be consumed in that time frame.
Given that hikers are recommended to drink 24 ounces of water per hour, we can convert this measurement to minutes by dividing by 60:
24 ounces/hour ÷ 60 minutes/hour = 0.4 ounces/minute.
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 0.4 ounces every 10 minutes.
To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to first calculate the rate of water consumption per hour.
The given recommendation states that hikers should drink 24 ounces of water per hour.
Now, let's calculate the rate of water consumption per minute:
24 ounces / 60 minutes = 0.4 ounces per minute
Therefore, the rate of water consumption is 0.4 ounces per minute.
To find out how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we multiply the rate of water consumption by 10:
0.4 ounces per minute * 10 minutes = 4 ounces
So, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
