Answer :

Notice that for each cup of concentrate Flannery adds 3 cups of water, then, if Flannery uses 9 cups of concentrate, she adds:

[tex]9\cdot3=27[/tex]

cups of water, for a total of 36 cups of punch.

Now, we know that:

[tex]1\text{cup}=\frac{1}{4}\text{quart.}[/tex]

Therefore, Flannery will make:

[tex]\frac{36}{4}=9[/tex]

quarts of punch.

Answer: Option A.
