Becca needs approximately 5 bottles of engine oil to completely fill her car engine.

How to determine the number of bottles of engine oil?

Since Becca's car engine has a capacity of 3.6 quarts and contains 1.2 quarts of engine oil, the remaining space left in her car engine is given by:

Space = 3.6 - 1.2

Space = 2.4 quarts.

By applying direct proportion, we have:

1 bottle = 0.5 quart.

x bottles = 2.4 quarts.

Cross-multiplying, we have:

0.5x = 2.4

x = 2.4/0.5

x = 4.8 5 bottles.
