Simeon Sweeney · Answer 1

So convert

4 quarts=1 gallon

convert to quarts

2 gallos=2 times 4 quarts=8 quarts

2 gallons=8 quarts

12>8

12 quarts is greated than 2 gallons

or you could have converted to gallons

1 gallon is 4 quarts so just divide 12 by 4 and you get three. So the 12 quarts equals 3 gallons which is obviously bigger than 2.
