A 2-gallon bottle of fabric softener costs $26.00. What is the price per quart?

1 answer

To find the price per quart, we first need to convert the volume from gallons to quarts. There are 4 quarts in a gallon, so:

\[ 2 \text{ gallons} \times 4 \text{ quarts/gallon} = 8 \text{ quarts} \]

Next, we divide the total cost of the fabric softener by the number of quarts:

\[ \text{Price per quart} = \frac{\text{Total cost}}{\text{Number of quarts}} = \frac{26.00}{8} = 3.25 \]

Therefore, the price per quart is $3.25.
