Answer

13 quart

Work Step by Step

26 pt = qt Use a unit fraction with quart (the unit for your answer) in the numerator, and pint(the unit being changed) in the denominator. Because 2 pints (pt) = 1 quart (qt), the necessary unit fraction is (1 quart)/(2 pint) Multiply 26 pt times the unit fraction. 26 * (1 quart)/(2 pint) = 13 quart
