The equation: 32 Q + 16 P = 1,280 models the described canning scenario.
Number of canned quart jars = Q
Number of canned pint jars = P
We know that:
1 pint = 16 ounces
1 quart = 32 ounces
and the total canned ounces is 1,280.
then:
(Number of canned jars) (volume of canned jars (ounces))= 1,280 ounces
(Q x 32) + (P x 16) = 1,280
32 Q + 16 P = 1,280
