Answer:

2,784 quarts

Explanation:

we first must find out how many quarts it can make per hour.

we do this by dividing 290 by 5 which gives you 58.

then you just multiply 58 by 48 which gives you 2,784.

MAKE SURE TO REMEMBER UNITS! Teachers like to take away points for that.

The answer is 2,784 quarts.

Since 290 quarts can be made in 5 hours, divide 290 ÷ 5.

290 quarts ÷ 5 hours = 58 quarts.

Now, with 58, multiply 58 by 48.

58 quarts • 48 hours = 2,784 quarts.

Hope I helped!
