The team manager mixes 0.6 kg of Gatorade powder with water in the 5-gallon water coolers for the football team. Gatorade donates new 7-gallon water jugs. How much powder should the manager use in a new 7-gallon cooler to maintain the same Gatorade mixture?
Since it's 0.6 kg for 5 gallons, we'd want to find the unit rate aka the amount of kg's per gallon. To find that, we have to see how many times 5 goes into 0.6, which is 0.6/5=0.12 for 1 gallon. Multiply that by 7 to get 0.84 for 7 gallons!
