Powerade is a Solution to Many Sports Problems

During class, we had to look at an interactive game that had to do with Powerade. A class decided to make Poweraid one day. They different students created their own kind of drink and the class had fun with it. During this part the interactive you have to categories the different cups. The darker the color the more concentrated it is. Then, two kids, Mia and Diego, want to make the same kind of poweraid at home. Diego tries to make his first. I learn that the color is darker or lighter based on the color is "sucks" in. So, darker it is, the more green it takes in. Diego's takes in 0.36 of the green light. You can calculate how much the drink is concentrated by taking the amount of PAid and dividing it by the amount of water added.

Mia's drink takes in 0.48 of the green light. I used the same equation that I used for Diego.
I learned that concentration of Diego's drink was 60 g/L and the concentration of Mia's drink was 80 g/L. I then had to calculate how much grams of sugar were in the two. At the end, I had to calculate the Poweraid packs.
I also learned because Diego's drink was larger, he had more sugar in his drink then Mia, even though it was less concentrated. Mia's drink was a bit more concentrated, but she had a smaller amount.

 Based on all this info, I learned that it doesn't matter how little you put dye, sugar or salt in water, if it's in a big glass then it was have more. If you put a lot in a smaller cup, there isn't as much because of size.
