Answer: Brady sprayed 11 quarts of fertilizer

Explanation:

Given : Brady buys 3 gallons of fertilizer for his lawn.

Since 1 gallon = 4 quarts

Then, 3 gallons =
$4*3=12\ \text{ quarts}$

After he finishes spraying the lawn he has 1 quart of fertilizer left over.

Then, the number of quarts of fertilizer Brady sprayed on the lawn

= Quarts of fertilizer bought - Quarts of fertilizer left

=12-1=11 quarts

Hence, Brady sprayed 11 quarts of fertilizer .
