Answer:

72 fluid ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

so we can set this up as a fractional equation

[tex]\frac{32}{60} =\frac{x}{135}[/tex]

since we know the times, we can use that to determine the amount of fluid ounces a person needs to drink

solve the left side first

[tex]0.533333333 =\frac{x}{135}[/tex]

Then multiply both sides by 135 to isolate x

[tex]72=x[/tex]

This means that after 135 minutes of biking, Damon should drink 72 fluid ounces

Hope this Helps :)
