the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution


let
p------> the number of pints he canned
q------> the number of quarts he canned

we know that

16p+32q=1280-----> this equation
models the scenario

the answer is
this equation models the scenario-----> 16p+32q=1280
