Part 4 – Design the procedure.
1) List your dependent
variable:
2) List your independent
variables:
3) List your controlled

5) Replication rate:
6) Control:
Part 5 – Write your procedure.
Write your procedure in a method that your laundry technician can follow. You can use as your guide
the sequence that you followed when you did the virtual lab salsa testing. Remember:
1) You should have a series of steps to follow.
2) Each step should be easily understood.
3) To include steps on recording results.
You should write your completed procedure below. Use additional paper if needed.
