Answer:

24 bottles

Explanation:

Trevor bought 9 pounds of sand

He fills 6-ounce bottles

First let's convert pounds to ounces:

  • 9 pounds= 9*16 ounces= 144 ounces

Now, number of bottles required:

  • 144 / 6 = 24 bottles

1 pound = 16 ounces.

9 pounds of sand x 16 = 144 total ounces of sand.

144 ounces / 6 ounce bottle = 24

He made 24 bottles.
