To find out how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to divide the recommended amount of water per hour by 6 (since 60 minutes divided by 10 minutes is 6).

24 ounces / 6 = 4 ounces

Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.

The correct answer is:
• 4 ounces

To determine how much the amount of water in the canteen should change every 10 minutes, we need to calculate the change in water per minute and then multiply it by 10.

The recommended amount of water that hikers should drink per hour is 24 ounces. To find the change in water per minute, we divide 24 ounces by 60 minutes:
24 ounces / 60 minutes = 0.4 ounces/minute

Now, we can calculate the change in water every 10 minutes by multiplying the change per minute by 10:
0.4 ounces/minute * 10 minutes = 4 ounces

Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should change by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.

To answer this question, we need to determine how much water should be consumed in 10 minutes if the recommended amount is 24 ounces per hour.

First, we need to convert the hourly recommendation to the amount of water to be consumed in 10 minutes. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we can divide the recommended water intake by 6 (60 minutes divided by 10 minutes) to get the amount of water to be consumed in 10 minutes.

24 ounces / 6 = 4 ounces

So, the correct answer is:
• 4 ounces

Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
