Answer:

12 bottles of water.

Explanation:

Since each walker drinks a bottle of water every 1/4 kilometre, we know that one walker drinks 4 bottles of water every kilometre since 4/4 = 1. We are trying to find how much water they drank after walking 3 kilometres, so we would multiply 3 by 4 getting us an answer of 12.
