Question

I need help with this!!

Answer 1

Answer:

0.84kg of gatorade powder is needed.

Explanation:

From the question given above, we were told that the team manager mixes 0.6kg of gatorade powder with 5 gallons of water.

Now, to obtain the desired amount of the powder of gatorade needed for 7 gallons of water, we simply do the following:

If 0.6kg of gatorade powder required 5 gallons of water,

Then Xg of gatorade will require 7 gallons of water i.e

Xg of gatorade = (0.6 x 7)/5

Xg of gatorade = 0.84kg

Therefore, to maintain the same gatorade mixture, the team manager must mix 0.84kg of gatorade powder with the 7 gallons of water.
