Answer:
The answer to your question is: 5 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
Process
First week
Divide 24 by 8
24/8 = 3 bottles = 1/8
but Sanjay drank 3/8 = 9 bottles
And there are 24 - 9 bottles left = 15
- Second week
Divide 15 by 3
15/3 = 5 then 5 bottles = 1/3
but sanjay drank 2/3 = 10 bottles
Then, there are 15 - 10 bottles left = 5
Her estimate is not reasonable.
Since she estimated 69%, you could do either of these options. You could...
A. Divide 242 (or .5) to show how much half off would be, then compare her estimate with half of 242 (121). OR...
B. Simply divide 242 by 69% (.69) and compaor her estimate to the exact amount (166.98).
I hope this helps!
