To convert 8 cups of chicken broth to quarts, we need to use the given conversion facts. Let's go through the steps one by one:
1. Convert cups to pints:
We know that 1 pint is equal to 2 cups. Therefore, to find out how many pints are in 8 cups, we divide the number of cups by the number of cups per pint:
[tex]\[
\text{pints} = \frac{8 \text{ cups}}{2 \text{ cups per pint}} = 4 \text{ pints}
\][/tex]
2. Convert pints to quarts:
Next, we know that 1 quart is equal to 2 pints. Therefore, to find out how many quarts are in 4 pints, we divide the number of pints by the number of pints per quart:
[tex]\[
\text{quarts} = \frac{4 \text{ pints}}{2 \text{ pints per quart}} = 2 \text{ quarts}
\][/tex]
Thus, 8 cups of chicken broth is equivalent to [tex]\( \boxed{2} \)[/tex] quarts.
