Final answer:

By dividing the total number of water bottles (2,000) by the number of bottles per box (6), we find that 333 full boxes of water bottles can be made, with the remainder ignored for full boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many full boxes of water bottles can be made when there are 2,000 water bottles and each box holds 6, we need to perform a division operation. By dividing the total number of water bottles by the number of bottles each box can hold, we find:

2000 รท 6 = 333 remainder 4.

Since we can only have full boxes, we disregard the remainder. Therefore, we can make 333 full boxes of water bottles.
