The Total surface area of single cone can be determined as,


\begin{gathered} \text{TSA}=\pi r^2+\pi rl \\ =3.14(2.6)^2+3.14(2.6)(10.2) \\ =21.2264in^2+83.2728in^2 \\ =104.4992in^2 \end{gathered}

The total surface area of one ornament will be,


\begin{gathered} \text{TSA}=2*104.4992 \\ =208.9984in^2 \end{gathered}

The total surface area of 60 ornaments will be,


\begin{gathered} \text{TSA}=60*208.9984in^2 \\ =12539.904in^2 \end{gathered}

The number of bottles can be determined as,


\begin{gathered} N=(12539.904)/(196) \\ =63.97 \\ \approx64 \end{gathered}

Thus, the required number of bottles is 64.
