It takes 8 cups of chicken broth to make a chicken soup recipe. How much is this in quarts?

[tex]\[\square \, \text{qt}\][/tex]

Conversion facts for volume:
- [tex]\(1 \, \text{cup} \, (c) = 8 \, \text{fluid ounces} \, (f \, oz)\)[/tex]
- [tex]\(1 \, \text{pint} \, (pt) = 2 \, \text{cups} \, (c)\)[/tex]
- [tex]\(1 \, \text{quart} \, (qt) = 2 \, \text{pints} \, (pt)\)[/tex]
- [tex]\(1 \, \text{gallon} \, (gal) = 4 \, \text{quarts} \, (qt)\)[/tex]

To convert 8 cups of chicken broth to quarts, we need to use the given conversion facts. Let's go through the steps one by one:

1. Convert cups to pints:
We know that 1 pint is equal to 2 cups. Therefore, to find out how many pints are in 8 cups, we divide the number of cups by the number of cups per pint:
[tex]\[ \text{pints} = \frac{8 \text{ cups}}{2 \text{ cups per pint}} = 4 \text{ pints} \][/tex]

2. Convert pints to quarts:
Next, we know that 1 quart is equal to 2 pints. Therefore, to find out how many quarts are in 4 pints, we divide the number of pints by the number of pints per quart:
[tex]\[ \text{quarts} = \frac{4 \text{ pints}}{2 \text{ pints per quart}} = 2 \text{ quarts} \][/tex]

Thus, 8 cups of chicken broth is equivalent to [tex]\( \boxed{2} \)[/tex] quarts.
