To find out how much water Jeriel drinks in one hour, we first need to find out how much water he drinks in 55 minutes.
If Jeriel drinks four fifths of a 6-ounce glass of water in 55 minutes, the amount he drinks in one minute is:
(4/5) * 6 = 4.8 ounces
So, in 55 minutes, Jeriel drinks:
4.8 ounces * 55 = 264 ounces
Since there are 16 ounces in a glass, the amount of water Jeriel drinks in 55 minutes is:
264 / 16 = 16.5 glasses
To find out how much water Jeriel drinks in one hour, we can divide this amount by 55 minutes and multiply by 60 minutes:
16.5 glasses / 55 minutes * 60 minutes = 18 glasses per hour
Therefore, Jeriel drinks 18 glasses of water per hour.
On average, Jeriel drinks four fiths of a 6-ounce glass of water in 55 minutes. How much water does he drink, in glasses per hour?
