The amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
The recommendation is to drink 24 ounces of water per hour.
10 minutes is 1/6th of an hour, since there are 60 minutes in an hour.
To find out how much water should be consumed every 10 minutes, we can divide the recommended amount by 6.
24 ounces / 6 = 4 ounces.
Therefore, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 ounces every 10 minutes.
