Hi there! Your answer will be 5.26. If your teacher is looking for the other numbers following, the full answer would be 5.26315789475.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to divide 3 and 2.85 and you will get 1.05263157895.

Then, you want to multiply that long number by 5 (since 8-3 is 5 representing the quarts).

Hope this helps! Have a good day!!
