17 quarts

Explanation:

In order to calculate the total volume of punch Melonie made, we'll need to convert the volume so that they are all in the same unit.

1 gallon = 4 quart

$volume of orange juice = 2.5 gallons \times \frac{4 quart}{1 gallon} = 10 quarts$ $"volume of orange juice" = "2.5 gallons" xx ("4 quart")/("1 gallon")="10 quarts"$

$Volume of cranberry juice = 4 quarts$ $"Volume of cranberry juice" = "4 quarts"$

$Volume of apple juice = 3 quarts$ $"Volume of apple juice" = "3 quarts"$

Volume of punch = total volume of fruit juices = 10 + 4 + 3 = 17 quarts
