Answer:

Avery's bottle holds 300 milliliters (already known) and Dashawn's bottle holds 225 milliliters.

Explanation:

I simply did this by finding out what 3/4 of 300 was. You can it this way:

Divide 300 by 4. You get 75.

Now, since Dashawn's bottle holds 3/4 as much, you multiply 75 by 3.

75 x 3 = 225

Therefore, your answer is 225ml.

Hope I helped! ☺
