First multiply: 2.4 by 20=48. Then you have to do it again to because one bottle cap is half of the scale used.

Answer: 96 bottle caps, 48 cm
Hope it helps!

You first have to multiply 2.4 by 20. That equals 48, so you have to do 48 times 2 again, because one bottle cap is half of the scale used.

Final answer: 96 bottle caps. 48cm
Hope this helps!
