How many cups are in 1 quart?

• A. 3 cups
• B. 2 cups
• C. 4 cups
• D. 5 cups

Answer: (C)

Understanding volume unit conversions in the U.S. customary system. A quart is made up of two pints, and a pint equals two cups. So 1 quart = 2 pints × 2 cups per pint = 4 cups. Therefore, there are four cups in one quart. The other numbers don’t fit because a pint is two cups, not one or three or five cups, so 2 cups is just a pint and 3 or 5 cups don’t align with the standard quart size.
