If John needs 13 bottles but can only carry 3, he would need to do five trips. On the first four trips he carries 3 bottles, after the 2nd trip he has brought in 6 total, 3rd trip 9 total, 4th trip 12 total. Since he needs 13 he has to get one more so the 5th he gets one bottle. He doesn't have to get 3 at a time just the max.
