    I just re-read your Q. Actually you have an easier way.

    Just take 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of water as ratio.

    That will be easier.

    All the best.

    [Each normal cup is 6ozs.. (Small cups are 4ozs.)

    16 ozs make a lb.

    And you have the rest of ans. above!

    For water, I'd use some jar that has some marking.]

    there are 4 cups in a quart. You would need 14 cups of rice to 28 cups of water.

    You would use 14 cups of rice, and 28 cups of water!

    2 cups = 1 pint

    2 pints= 1 quart

    So.... there are 4 cups in 1 quart

    If you have a liquid measuring cup, the measurements are all on the side.

    1 quart = 32 oz.

    so, 3.5 quarts = 112 oz. = 14 cups

    and, 7 quarts = 224 oz. = 28 cups

    that is a lot of rice there!

    if you want to reduce the amount youre making, just remember rice is always 1 part rice to two parts water.

    For the liquid measure (hot water): 4 cups (exactly) = 1 quart

    For the dry measure (rice): 4.5 (approx) cups = 1 quart

    also, 1 cup = 1/2 pint or 8 ozs

    1 quart = 1/4 gal or 32 ozs

    i will tell you a secret say there is one gallon 4 quarts go in a gallon in each quart there is 2 pints and in each pint there is 2 cups

    so that means each quart has 4 cups in it

    2 cups equals a pint

    2 pints equals a quart.

    Just multiply the quart by 4

    Or divdide the amount of cups by 4
