Bottle C contains 150% of the water in
Bottle B. How much
water is there in
Bottle C
? Help please

B=16 ounces

C=24 ounces

B=1/0.75=133%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

A≡0.25B (25%), if A=4 ounces  then B=4/0.25 = 16 ounces

C=1.5B (150%), if B=16 ounces then C=1.5*(16 ounces) = 24 ounces

D≡xB (?%), if D=12 ounces then x=12/16 = 0.75 ≡ 75%, but xB≡D ⇒ B≡D/x →

B≡12(1/0.75)= B=12*(1.333)→ B≅133%D
