Ok, so if it holds 12 fluid ounces and there are 32 in 1 quart, you would have to find how many 12's go into 32. You will find out that 2 cups go into 1 quart you would have to do figure out this out. (Sorry i am bad at explaining) The answer would be C. 3 bottles.

It would take 3 bottles. 25 twelve-ounce cups equals out to 300 ounces. There is only 128 ounces in a gallon.
