Answer:

2304 quarts

Explanation:

An ice cream factory makes 320 quarts of ice cream in 5 hours. How many quarts of ice cream could be made in 36 hours?

From the above question

5 hours = 320 quarts

36 hours = x quarts

Cross Multiply

5 hours × x quarts = 320 quarts × 36 hours

x quarts = 320 quarts × 36 hours/5 hours

x quarts = 2304 quarts

Therefore, 2304 quarts of ice cream could be made in 36 hours.
