Question

June drinks 2.5 ounces of water every 20 minutes. How much water does she drink per hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

7.5 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2.5}{20} =\frac{x}{60} \\\\20x=150\\x= 7.5$

Answer 2

Answer:

7.5 oz per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 20 minute increments in an hour, therefore, 2.5 x 3 = 7.5

(extra credit= June also drinks 180 ounces of water in a 24 hour period if continuing her drinking pattern of 2.5 oz every 20 minutes.)

Hope this helps :)
