Answer:

Allen will need to fill 8 ounce cup 12 times to fill the pot of soup.

Explanation:

This problem bothers on conversion of units

To solve the problem let's us tackle it by converting the 3quart to ounce

Step one

1 ounce = 0.03125 quart

X ounce = 3 quart

By cross multiplication we have

X ounce =3/0.03125

X= 96 ounce

Therefore 3 quart is 96 ounce

Since Allen is using 8 ounce measuring cup he will need

96/8= 12 cups of water to fill the pot of soup

Therefore Allen will need to fill 8 ounce 12times
