The small bottles are 14 in number and large bottles are 5 in number.

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ping's Cola comes in 12 ounce and 16 ounce bottles.

Let the 12 ounce bottles be = s

Let the 16 ounce bottles be = l

The organizers of a volleyball game have 19 bottles on hand

or     ....(1)

Total weight of 19 bottles are 248 ounces. So, next equation becomes:

   ......(2)

Substituting value of s in (2)

l = 5

And

s = 14

So, the small bottles are 14 in number and large bottles are 5 in number.

it is a. 4.2 because 7.6-3.4 gets the remaining length of 4.2. i might be wrong but i am pretty sure this is the answer.
