Answer:

30

Explanation:

15 x 4 = 60, which means that Beetle has 15 bottles of water and that Ameezy has bottles. 45 - 15 = 30.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

36 bottles.

Explanation:

If you wrote them out, like 1 over 4, 2 over 8, and added up their totals at the bottom, you would eventually reach 60. The last column has 12 over 48, so we subtract 12 from 48, which gives us 36. So the answer is 36 bottles.

Hope this helped!
