Answer:
7.84 to 8.16 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference between the actual amount in the bottle and the target amount of 8 ounces can be at most 2% of 8 ounces. That amount is ...
0.02×8 oz = 0.16 oz
The amount in the bottle can be this much higher:
8 + 0.16 = 8.16 . . . ounces
or, it can be that much lower:
8 - 0.16 = 7.84 . . . ounces
The range of values the bottle could contain is from 7.84 ounces to 8.16 ounces.
It could be any fraction from 5/9 to 7/9.
