A 4-column table with 2 rows. Row 1 is labeled Gallons and row 2 is labeled quarts. Column 1 is labeled Q 1 with entries 6, blank. Column 2 is labeled Q 2 with entries 4, 16. Column 3 is labeled Q 3 with entries 3, 12. Column 4 is labeled Q 4 with entries 2, 8.

A juice company currently sells juice in gallon-size containers but wants to diversify to provide quart-size containers. If the company produces the number of gallons of juice every quarter given in the table, how many quarts will be produced in the first quarter?

To find out how many quarts will be produced in the first quarter (Q1), we will first look at the number of gallons produced in that quarter, which is given as 6 gallons in Row 1, Column 1.

Since 1 gallon is equal to 4 quarts, we can convert gallons to quarts as follows:

\[ \text{Quarts} = \text{Gallons} \times 4 \]

For Q1: \[ \text{Quarts} = 6 , \text{gallons} \times 4 = 24 , \text{quarts} \]

Therefore, the company will produce 24 quarts of juice in the first quarter.
