Let

x--------> the size of the larger bottle in ounces

we know that

\(20\%=\frac{20}{100} =0.20\)

\(x=5.4(1+0.20)\) --> equation that could be used to find the size of the larger bottle

Solve the equation for x

\(x=5.4(1+0.20)=5.4*1.20=6.48\ ounces\)

therefore

the answer is

the size of the larger bottle is \(6.48\ ounces\)
