Sure, let's solve this step by step:
1. Understand the Conversion Factor: We know that 1 gallon is equivalent to 4 quarts.
2. Given Information: We have 2 gallons.
3. Calculate:
- To find out how many quarts are in 2 gallons, we need to multiply the number of gallons by the conversion factor.
- Therefore, we multiply 2 gallons by 4 quarts per gallon:
[tex]\[
2 \text{ gallons} \times 4 \frac{\text{quarts}}{\text{gallon}} = 8 \text{ quarts}
\][/tex]
4. Conclusion: There are 8 quarts in 2 gallons.
So, [tex]\( \text{2 gallons} = 8 \text{ quarts} \)[/tex].
