Mrs. Cabrini has a total of 2 1/8 quarts of tomato sauce.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Mrs. Cabrini needs 2 quarts of tomato sauce to make a large batch of her spaghetti sauce. she has 1 1/4 quarts of her own, and she borrows 1/2 quart from the neighbor across the hall and 3/8 quart from the neighbor next door, to determine how many quarts does she have in all of her own must perform the following calculation:

1/4 = 0.25

1/2 = 0.5

3/8 = 0.375

0.25 + 0.5 + 0.375 = X

1.125 = X

1 + 1,125 = 2,125

Therefore, Mrs. Cabrini has a total of 2 1/8 quarts of tomato sauce.
