Answer:

34 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of pints be x.

Recall that 2 pints in 1 quart, so to determine the number of pints in 17 quarts, all we need to do is set up proportions and solve for x as shown below;


\begin{gathered} 2\text{ pints }\rightarrow\text{ 1 quart} \\ x\text{ pints }\rightarrow\text{ 17 quarts} \\ x=17*2 \\ x=34\text{ pints} \end{gathered}
