Since Denise jarred 12 liters of jam after 2 days, then she jarred 6 liters per day. If she wants to jar 24 liters of jam, we have to divide the number of liters by the ratio to find the days she would spend. Doing so, we find that she must spend 4 days to jar 24 liters of jam.

The answer is 4 days.
