Answer 1

Answer:

3/4 liter of red is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

:3%2F20

Blue:9%2F20

White:X%2F20

So then the total would equal 1 or 20%2F20

So,

3%2F20%2B9%2F20%2BX%2F20=20%2F20

12%2BX=20

X=8

So then the fraction is,

W=8%2F20=2%2F5

R=5%283%2F20%29=15%2F20=3%2F4

3/4 liter of red is needed.
