Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall unit conversion

We know that 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts. So the conversion factor from gallons to quarts is 4 quarts per gallon.

Step2: Multiply gallons by conversion factor

We have 2.5 gallons of milk. To find the number of quarts, we multiply the number of gallons by the conversion factor. So we calculate (2.5\times4). (2.5\times4 = 10)

Answer:

10 quarts
