Answer:

15 times

Explanation:

Easy peasy!

So 3/4 is one whole bottle right?

The measuring cup holds only 1/4 while you need 3/4 so you fill it 3 times to fill the cup but remember you have 4 more cups to fill so you multiply 3 and 5 to get 15!!

You multiply 3 because it takes 3 measuring cups to fill a bottle and there’s 5 cups in all

Let me know if I’m wrong

Hope this helped and good luck!
