Answer: B

Explanation:

First, let's convert the 5 pints of fruit punch to cups:

5 pints = 5 x 2 cups/pint = 10 cups

Now we can add up the cups of each ingredient:

6 cups of orange juice + 10 cups of fruit punch + 8 cups of apple juice = 24 cups

Since there are 4 cups in a quart, we can divide by 4 to get the number of quarts:

24 cups ÷ 4 cups/quart = 6 quarts

Therefore, Jackson makes 6 quarts of fruit punch.
