Answer: $34

Explanation:

They buy the same number of bottles of water

Mr A buys 4 extra bottles of juice and pays $136 more. (5-1=4 and 314-178=136)

Each bottle of juice must cost $34. (136 / 4 = 34)

This assumes the bottles of juice are all the same price!

The water bottles will cost (178 - 34) / 3 = $48.

The values in this problem are unrealistic!
