He should use 886 fluid ounces of soap.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Know that 8 fluid ounces make 1 cup.

Now 24 cups need 32 fluid ounces or, 3 fluid ounces of water need 32 fluid ounces of soap.

Thus, by unitary method,

84 ounces of water need 32 × 84 / 3 ounces of soap.

Thus the answer comes to 886 ounces.
