For this case we have by definition:

1 Pint is equal to 0.5 quart

We must indicate how many quarts there are in 120 pints.

Making a rule of three we have:

1 pint --------------------> 0.5 quart

120 pints -------------> x

Where the variable "x" represents the number of quarts equivalent to 120 pints.


x = \frac {120 * 0.5} {1}\\x = 60

Thus, 120 pints are equivalent to 60 quarts

Answer:

Option C
