To solve the problem, we first need to find the water needed per ounce of oatmeal. We know that it takes 76 gallons of water to produce 4 ounces of oatmeal.
Step 1: Calculate the amount of water needed for 1 ounce of oatmeal.
\[ \text{Water per ounce} = \frac{76 \text{ gallons}}{4 \text{ ounces}} = 19 \text{ gallons per ounce} \]
Step 2: Fill in the table with different amounts of oatmeal.
Assuming the table you are referring to lists the ounces of oatmeal and the corresponding gallons of water:
| Ounces of Oatmeal | Gallons of Water | |-------------------|------------------| | 1 | 19 | | 2 | \(2 \times 19 = 38\) | | 3 | \(3 \times 19 = 57\) | | 4 | 76 | | 5 | \(5 \times 19 = 95\) | | 6 | \(6 \times 19 = 114\) | | 7 | \(7 \times 19 = 133\) | | 8 | \(8 \times 19 = 152\) | | 9 | \(9 \times 19 = 171\) | | 10 | \(10 \times 19 = 190\) | | 11 | \(11 \times 19 = 209\) | | 12 | \(12 \times 19 = 228\) | | 13 | \(13 \times 19 = 247\) | | 14 | \(14 \times 19 = 266\) | | 15 | \(15 \times 19 = 285\) |
Feel free to adjust the values based on the specific items in your table if they differ from these.
