To determine how many times Kari needs to fill her quart container to make 5 gallons of water, we need to convert gallons into quarts.
1 gallon = 4 quarts, so:
5 gallons = 5 × 4 = 20 quarts.
Since Kari is using a quart container, she will have to fill the quart container 20 times to obtain 20 quarts.
Therefore, Kari will have to fill the container **20 times**.
1 gallon = 4 quarts, so:
5 gallons = 5 × 4 = 20 quarts.
Since Kari is using a quart container, she will have to fill the quart container 20 times to obtain 20 quarts.
Therefore, Kari will have to fill the container **20 times**.
