Answer:

11 pt

Explanation:

Convert all volumes to pints

Starting volume

2 gal × 4 qt/1 gal = 8 qt

8 qt × 2 pt/1 qt = 16 pt

Breakfast

1 qt × 2 pt/1 qt = 2 pt

Stating volume = 16 pt

Less breakfast = -2 pt

Less lunch = -3 pt

After lunch = 11 pt

The Garcia family had 11 pt of milk left after lunch.
