US gallons = US quarts × 0.25. So 8 US quarts is back to 2 US gallons; one US quart is 0.25 US gallons. See the US quarts to US gallons table.

Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 4: 2 × 4 ≈ 8 qt, against the exact 8 qt (0.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A US gallon is bigger than a US quart, so the number of US quarts must come out larger than the number of US gallons. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
