Water Intake Calculation: Total Ounces Over 5 Days

To calculate the total ounces of water a person should drink over a 5-day period, we need to multiply the recommended daily intake by the number of days.

Given that a person should drink six 8-ounce glasses of water per day, the daily intake is 6 * 8 = 48 ounces.

To find the total ounces over 5 days, we multiply the daily intake by 5:

Total ounces = 48 ounces/day * 5 days

= 240 ounces

Therefore, the expression that shows the total ounces of water a person should drink over a 5-day period is 240 ounces.
