The shots you've already had will not be burned away until 4:15pm. That leaves you 5 hours and 45 minutes to burn anything else you drink now. So, you can drink 5 3/4 more shots within the next 2 hours.

According to your figures, you should be able to drink five more shots. However, I would not advise dirinking five shots of whiskey in two hours, as it is unhealthy and if they are all drank at the same time it may take longer to burn off than if they were spaced apart.

time available=21.45 hrs
no of shots of whiskey=20.75
already consumed=4
you can have 16 more shots and three quarters
the last shot at 9.00 p.m

4, as long as you don't go past 2 PM, and all your info is correct.
