Solution

The correct option is C 3 bottles
Total volume of juice=92 L

Capacity of each bottle=134 L =(4×1)+34=74 L

Number of bottles required Total volume of juice = ÷ Capacity of each bottle

=92 L÷74 L

Calculating 92÷74 using the keepchangeflip method, we get:


Calculating 92×47, we get:

92×47=9×42×7=3614=187=247

To pack the all of the juice, we need 2 entire bottles as well as 47th of a thirdbottle.

Hence, at least 3 bottles are required to pack all the juice.
