16

To determine the number of gallons of punch Susan will have, we need to calculate the total number of quarts she will make and then convert it to gallons.

Given that the recipe makes 2 quarts, and Susan wants to make four times the recipe, we can calculate the total number of quarts as follows:

2 quarts (1 recipe) × 4 (four times the recipe) = 8 quarts

Next, to convert quarts to gallons, we need to divide the number of quarts by 4 since there are 4 quarts in 1 gallon:

8 quarts ÷ 4 = 2 gallons

Therefore, Susan will have 2 gallons of punch for her birthday party.
