One day, I visited a sports event where the organizers prepared water bottles for the participants. They discovered that 3 water dispensers could fill 90 bottles. To ensure they had enough water for all participants, they needed to determine how many bottles could be filled with different numbers of dispensers.(a) How many bottles can be filled with 5 dispensers? i) 150ii) 120iii) 100iv) 160(b) If 4 dispensers are used, how many bottles can they fill? i) 100ii) 120iii) 140iv) 160(c) How many dispensers are needed to fill 180 bottles? i) 6ii) 5iii) 8iv) 7(d) How many dispensers are needed to fill 300 bottles? i) 8ii) 9iii) 10iv) 12

Calculate bottles per dispenser: Determine the number of bottles filled by one dispenser.Calculation: 3 dispensers fill 90 bottles.1 dispenser fills 390=30 bottles.
Calculate bottles for 5 dispensers: Calculate the number of bottles filled by 5 dispensers. Calculation: 5 dispensers fill 5×30=150 bottles.
Verify answer for 5 dispensers: Verify the answer for part (a). Answer: 150 bottles.
Calculate bottles for 4 dispensers: Calculate the number of bottles filled by 4 dispensers. Calculation: 4 dispensers fill 4×30=120 bottles.
Verify answer for 4 dispensers: Verify the answer for part (b). Answer: 120 bottles.
Calculate dispensers for 180 bottles: Calculate the number of dispensers needed to fill 180 bottles. Calculation: 180 bottles / 30 bottles per dispenser = 6 dispensers.
Verify answer for 180 bottles: Verify the answer for part (c). Answer: 6 dispensers.
Calculate dispensers for 300 bottles: Calculate the number of dispensers needed to fill 300 bottles. Calculation: 300 bottles / 30 bottles per dispenser = 10 dispensers.
Verify answer for 300 bottles: Verify the answer for part (d). Answer: 10 dispensers.
