To find out how much of the bottle of conditioner Denise used on her cat Butter, we need to calculate the fraction of the bottle she used on Peaches first, then subtract that amount from the total amount used on Peaches.
If Denise used 16/18 of the bottle of conditioner on Peaches, we can calculate the amount used on Butter by subtracting 16/18 from 1.
1 - 16/18 = 2/18 = 1/9
Therefore, Denise used 1/9 of the bottle of conditioner on Butter.
