4 quarts = 1 gallon, so 2.4 gallons = (4) (2.4) quarts. So 2.4 (4) is the expression you could use to convert it.

Answer:

2.5 gallons are equal to 10 quarts.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1 gallon is equivalent to 4 quarts.

Let's call [tex]g[/tex] gallons and [tex]q[/tex] quarts. An expression that represents the transformation between these two units is

[tex]q=4g[/tex]

This expression represents the conversion factor we described at the beginning.

So, if we have 2.5 gallons, using the expression, we find the number of quarts

[tex]q=4(2.5)\\q=10[/tex]

Therefore, 2.5 gallons are equal to 10 quarts.
