Question

bob is trying to drink more water, so he has been keeping a log of how much water he drinks. yesterday, bob drank 20 ounces of water. that is 0% less than he drank two days ago. how much water did bob drink two days ago?
square ounces

Explanation:

Step1: Define the variable

Let \( x \) be the amount of water (in ounces) Bob drank two days ago.

Step2: Set up the equation

We know that 20 ounces is 0% less than \( x \). Mathematically, "0% less than \( x \)" means \( x - 0\%\times x = 20 \). Since \( 0\%\times x = 0 \), the equation simplifies to \( x = 20 \).

Answer:

20
