the ACTUAL answer is 12.24. I got it wrong when I said 15.12.


Explanation: 3 3/5 turn it into an improper fraction = 18/5.



18/5 = 3.6 in decimal form x 3 full bottles= 10.8 sugar in three bottles.




3.6 in one bottle, finding 2/5 of that means 3.6 divided by 5 = 0.72 x 2 = 1.4



10.8 + 1.44 =12.24
