U.S. quarts (qt) are a unit of volume commonly used in the United States for measuring liquid capacity. One U.S. quart is equivalent to 32 U.S. fluid ounces, approximately 0.946 liters, or 2 U.S. liquid pints. U.S. quarts are frequently used to measure the volume of liquids such as milk, water, and other beverages, as well as for cooking ingredients and household liquids. This unit provides a practical measure for understanding and comparing liquid quantities, particularly in recipes, food packaging, and beverage containers.
