Fluid Ounces to Quarts (fl oz to qt)

How to convert fluid ounces to quarts

Divide the fluid ounces by 32:

qt = fl oz ÷ 32

64 fl oz ÷ 32 = 2 qt. The factor is exact: a U.S. quart is 2 pints of 16 fluid ounces. The result also shows the same volume in cups and liters. To go the other way, multiply quarts by 32, or use quarts to ounces.
