4. Sarah brought two 16-ounce water bottles with her on a bike ride. She drank 75% of one of the bottles and 50% of the other by the halfway point of her ride. How many ounces of water does she have remaining? (Please enter your answer as a whole number.)

It is 80% percent because of you add the girl so that's 1 and that bottle that's 80%.

75 percent of 16 is 16 divided by 4 times 3
16/4=4×3=12
75 percent of 16 is 12
16-12=4 ounces remaining at the moment
50 percent or half of 4 is 2
so 4-2=2 ounces remaining
the answer is: 2 ounces
