Question:

What does 7qts of water mean?

i was watching tv about a woman who died after drinking 7qts of water
wat is qts? in litres or gallons
does anyone know???


Answers:
1.75 gallons
A qt or quart is 1 quarter of a gallon

quarts

Alot of water (lol)...in measured terms it means 1 and 3/4 gallons of water (4 quarts = 1 gallon). You can refer to the following link for further details.

A quart (what "qt" is short for) is 946 ml, so 7 quarts is about 6.6 liters.

There are also four quarts in a gallon, so the woman drank 1.75 gallons of water.

qts stands for quarts.... there are 4 quarts to a gallon.

1 quart = 0.9463 liters = 0.25 gallons...... Thus, 7 quarts = 6.6241 liters = 1.75 gallons.... Hope this helps.... although I'm not sure it makes much sence.... I don't know how anyone could die from drinking water... unless there was something in it and because she drank a little over 3 times the recommended daily serving she got an excess amount of some bacteria or chemical/poison.... I'd be interested in knowing the details of her condition.

She dies from entirely drowning her system, for those who are speculating on why she died.

And, as everyone said, she drank 1.75 gallons of water. Or, approximately 3 1/2 times what it's recommended you drink in a day.
