To find the price per quart of the fabric softener, we first need to convert the volume from cups to quarts.
1 quart is equal to 4 cups. Therefore, a 16-cup bottle can be converted to quarts as follows:
\[
\text{Number of quarts} = \frac{\text{Number of cups}}{4} = \frac{16 \text{ cups}}{4} = 4 \text{ quarts}
\]
Next, we know the total cost of the 16-cup bottle is $5.60. Now we can calculate the price per quart:
\[
\text{Price per quart} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of quarts}} = \frac{5.60}{4} = 1.40
\]
Thus, the price per quart is:
\[
\boxed{1.40}
\]
