Answer:
CUT through the hardwater stains
Explanation:
The dependent variable in an experiment is the variable that the experimenter measures. It is the variable that responds to changes made to the independent variable.
In this experiment, Marie conducted an experiment to test which cleaner will do a better job of cutting through the stains (hard water buildup). She measures the cut through the stain, hence, the CUT is the dependent variable, which is dependent on the cleaner used.
