It is recommended that hikers drink 24 oz of water an hour. If a canteen has 24 oz of water how much should the amount of water in the canteen change every 10 minutes?

If hikers are recommended to drink 24 oz of water per hour, that translates to 2.4 oz of water every 10 minutes (since 60 minutes / 10 minutes = 6 intervals, and 24 oz / 6 = 4 oz per interval).

So, the amount of water in the canteen should decrease by 4 oz every 10 minutes.
