a soccer team drank 4 gallons of Gatorade over 5 weeks. during this time period at what rate did the team members drink Gatorade

1 answer

To determine the rate at which the team members drank Gatorade, we need to calculate the average amount of Gatorade consumed per week.

Since they drank 4 gallons over 5 weeks, we can divide the total amount of Gatorade (4 gallons) by the number of weeks (5 weeks).

The rate at which the team members drank Gatorade is 4 gallons / 5 weeks = <<4/5=0.8>>0.8 gallons per week.
