The conversion from quarts to cups is:
1 cup = 1/4 quart
John made the mistake of using the conversion the other way around
Therefore, he thought that 1 quart was 1/4 cups instead.

This would result in John getting 2/4 cups rather than 8 cups, which should be the accepted value

Hope this helped ^_^
