1 answer
Mr Philips can fill 10 6-ounce bottles with the quantities of paint shown. This is because 64 ounces of blue divided by 6 ounces per bottle is 10 bottles, 12 ounces of yellow divided by 6 ounces per bottle is 2 bottles, and 32 ounces of white divided by 6 ounces per bottle is 5 bottles. When added together, 10 + 2 + 5 = 17 bottles.
