Answer:

x = ( 6 / 5 )y

Explanation:

Identify the equaiton.

let x = bottle;

let y = cups;

( 2 / 3 )x = ( 4 / 5 )y;

Multiply both sides by ( 3 / 2 ).

( 3 / 2 )( 2 / 3 )x = ( 3 / 2 )( 4 / 5 )y;

x = ( 12 / 10 )y;

Write the fraction in its simplest form.

x = ( 6 / 5 )y;

It takes 1 + ( 1 / 5 ) of a cup to fill the bottle.
