Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

We known that 1 quart is equivalent to 32 fluid ounces

Suppose each eruption consumes 8 fluid of ounces, if we also assume that the amount of vinegar required per eruption is constant, then the number of times Adriana can make her volcano erupt is

n = 32 / 8

n = 4 times

Adriana can make her volcano erupt 4 times with 1 quart of vinegar
