Well, 1 jar = 26 ounces
So, to find out how many cups are in 4 jars, I am going to multiply, 26×4= 104, So there are 104 ounces in 4 jars but to find out how many cups are in 4 jars, I need to see how many ounces are in 1 cup, Which there are 8 ounces in 1 cup, So to find out how many cups are in 4 jars, I need to divide 104 ounces ÷ 8 ounces= 13 cups

So there are 13 cups in 4 jars


I hope this helped :)

- First, know that there are eight ounces in a cup.

- If there are 26 ounces in 1 jar, then that means there are 3 cups and 2 ounces in that one jar.

- Assuming all the jars have the same amount of ounces in it, they'd each have 26 ounces in them. Since there are 4 jars with 26 ounces in it, multiply those 2 numbers (unless you want to add 26 four times). The answer is 104.

- There are 104 ounces in 4 jars of spaghetti sauce. But they asked for cups, so you gotta convert ounces to cups. Since there are eight ounces in a cup, divide that 8 ounces by 104. The answer is 13. Therefore, there are 13 cups of spaghetti sauce in 4 jars.
