Final answer:

To split 6 quarts of ice cream evenly among 9 people, each person will get 2 cups of ice cream.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many cups each person will get, we need to divide the total amount of ice cream by the number of people. In this case, Connor has 6 quarts of ice cream and needs to split it with 9 members of the team. We can convert quarts to cups by multiplying by 4, since there are 4 cups in a quart. So, we have 6 x 4 = 24 cups of ice cream. Now, we divide 24 cups by 9 people. Using long division, we find that each person will get 2 cups of ice cream.
