Question

Mixture A is made with 5 cups of purple paint and 2 cups of white paint.

Mixture B is made with 15 cups of purple paint and 8 cups of white paint.

Which mixture is a lighter shade of purple? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The one with the most white in the mixture is the 'lightest'

A  is   5:2   =    15:6

B is                   15:8     and thus has more of the white to the purple(15) ...so it will be 'lighter' in color
