Answer: 5.272 ounces

Explanation:

Given : The Bright-O Shampoo Factory includes 1.078 ounces of vanilla oil in a 6.35-ounce bottle of shampoo.

i.e. Quantity of shampoo in a bottle = 6.35-ounces

The quantity of vanilla oil in each bottle = 1.078 ounces

Now, the amount of shampoo is NOT vanilla oil :-


6.35-1.078=5.272\text{ ounces}

Hence, 5.272 ounces of the bottle of shampoo is NOT vanilla oil.
