Answer:

3.25

Explanation:

From unit conversion, we know that

32 fluid ounces = 1 quartz

and we want to know

104 fluid ounces = ? quartz

Therefore, we can say


\frac{32oz}{1\text{qt}}=\frac{104oz\text{.}}{\text{?qt}}

Now, cross multiplication gives


32oz(\text{? qt) = 104oz }\cdot\text{ 1 qt }


\rightarrow32oz(\text{? qt ) = 104oz }

Dividing both sides by 32oz gives


\text{? qt=}(104oz)/(32oz)
\text{? quartz=3.25oz}

Hence, 104 fl oz = 3.25 qt.
