60 pints in total because 9 quarts are equal to 12 pints and 6 gallons are equal to 48 pints.

Given:

Ivy has 6 Gallons of water

Jimmy has 9 Quarts of water

Conversion:


1 \; gallon \; = \; 8 \; pint\\ \\ 1 \; quarts \; = \; 2 \; pint

Solution:

Number of pints of water that Ivy have:


6 \; gallons * 8 \; pints/gallon =\; 48 \; pints

Number of pints of water that Jimmy have:


9 \; quarts \; * \; 2 \; pints\quart\; = \; 18\; pints

Conclusion:

The number of pints of water do Ivy and Jimmy have together is 66 pints.
