Answer:

24

Explanation:

Okay she got 6 quarts of orange marmalade and she pouring 1/4 quarts into a jar.

I will draw out the problem for you

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 1 quart

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 2 quart

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 3 quart

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 4 quart

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 5 quart

1/4 + 1/4 +1/4 + 1/4 = 6 quart

and if u count all the 1/4 in the thing I just type, it will be 24
