1. **State the problem:** We know that one recycled glass bottle saves enough energy to power a computer for 25 minutes.
2. We want to find how many recycled glass bottles are needed to power the computer for 10 hours.
3. **Convert hours to minutes:** Since 1 hour = 60 minutes, 10 hours = $$10 \times 60 = 600$$ minutes.
4. **Set up the ratio:** If 1 bottle powers the computer for 25 minutes, then the number of bottles needed for 600 minutes is $$\frac{600}{25}$$.
5. **Calculate:** $$\frac{600}{25} = 24$$.
6. **Answer:** It takes 24 recycled glass bottles to save enough energy to power a computer for 10 hours.
