Spoiler
of 12 ounces times 100 bottles minus 12 to get 1188 total ounces. He looked up how many ounces are in a pint earlier that week and thinks it was 16 so he's leaning toward 74.25 but he doesn't trust his brain doing so many equations in one question.
Spoiler
Mike's +1 is his friend, Keith, who is good at math. Keith confirms there are 16 ounces to a pint and shows Mike that one bottle is 3/4 of a pint. 3/4 of 100 would be 75, so the answer is...

Mike knows
Spoiler
the English names for the ear bones are Hammer, Anvil, and Stirrup and he thinks Hammer would line up with Malleus (e.g. Mallet). He thinks he's heard Incus and Stapes with Malleus & he doesn't think he's ever heard of Hyoid before this question.

B: Hyoid
