Final answer:

Mr. Diaz saved 44.8 ounces of Gatorade after drinking 30% of a 64-ounce bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Diaz bought a 64-ounce Gatorade bottle and drank 30% of it. To find the amount he drank, we calculated 30% of 64 ounces. We multiply 64 by 0.30 (30%) to find this out.

64 ounces * 0.30 = 19.2 ounces

Since Mr. Diaz drank 19.2 ounces, he saved the rest for later. To find out how much he saved, we subtract the amount dru nk from the total amount.

64 ounces - 19.2 ounces = 44.8 ounces saved for later.
