Explanation:

There are 22 horses and riders, each horse has 2 bags so there are 44 bags in all. if there are 3 bottles of water in each bag, there are 6 bottles per horse. if you multiply it up there are 132 bottles of water in all.

In a simpler form

22 x 2 = 44

44 x 3 = 132

Answer:

There are 132 bottles of water

Hope this helps others, I sure did struggled on it for a while.
