There would be 8 cups of water in each bottle because 16 divided by 2 is 8.

Answer:

8 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total number of cups = 16,

Number of bottles = 2,

Thus, the number of cups in each bottle = \(\frac{\text{Total cups}}{\text{Total bottles}}\)

\(=\frac{16}{2}\)

In the below tape diagram,

Take a grid that represents 16, divide this into two parts,

2 parts = 16 cups

1 part = 8 cups

Hence, there are 8 cups in each bottle.
