Final answer:

The bowl holds 6 cups of water, which is twice the amount that the water bottle contains (3 cups).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for the amount of water that a bowl can hold if it holds twice as much as a water bottle that contains 3 cups (c) of water. To find the answer, you have to multiply the amount of water the water bottle holds by 2, because the bowl holds 2 times the amount in the water bottle.

Here's the calculation:

  • Water bottle volume = 3 cups
  • Bowl's volume = 2 × water bottle's volume
  • Bowl's volume = 2 × 3 cups
  • Bowl's volume = 6 cups

Therefore, the bowl holds 6 cups of water.
