Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate remaining water

The cooler has 144 ounces initially. Will uses 16 ounces for his water - bottle. So the remaining water is $144 - 16=128$ ounces.

Step2: Divide remaining water by number of cups

He has 16 cups for his teammates. Let $x$ be the amount of water in each cup. Then $x=\frac{128}{16}$. $x = 8$

Answer:

On the number - line, place a closed point (since the amount of water in each cup can be exactly 8 ounces) at 8.
