Answer:

16 times

Explanation:

Since he has a 4-gallon aquarium and a 1-quart container, and since there are 4 quarts in every gallon, he'll need to fill the aquarium with the container full 16 times because for every gallon, he'll need to fill the aquarium 4 times. This is the equation:

4*4=16 times
