The grocery store sells bottles of juice in six-packs, or they can be bought

separately. Edward is preparing a barbecue this weekend, and plans to have 4 families
attending. If there are 2 people in each family who will drink juice, and each of them will
drink 2 bottles, how many six-packs of juice should he buy, and how many extra single
bottles should he buy?

Answer: 48

Explanation:

if Kate has 65 bottles to store, you would just add up 12 continuously till you reach 65 or go below 65, so 12+12=24 24+12=36 36+12= 48 48+12 = 68 so therefore she'd need to store at least 48 bottles of water.

Answer:

He will need to buy 2 six-packs and then 4 single bottles.

Explanation:

2((4)2) = 16 (This is how many he will need to get)

16/6 = 2 packs and 4 leftover
