Given:
The plot below shows the amount of liquid remaining in 5 basketball players' water bottles after practice.
To find:
How many times as great is the amount of water remaining in the bottle with the most water than the bottle with the least water?
Solution:
From given, we have,
Out of 5 basketball players' water bottles, 3's bottles are (1/2) half-filled and the remaining 2's are [(1/2) / 2] = (1/4) quarterly filled.
Therefore, we get,
the bottle with the most water = 1/2 filled bottle
the bottle with the least water = 1/4 filled bottle
1/2 = 2 × 1/4
Therefore, double the times as great is the amount of water remaining in the bottle with the most water than the bottle with the least water.
