The Green Goober, a wildly unpopular superhero, mixes
3
33 liters of yellow paint with
5
55 liters of blue paint to make
8
88 liters of special green paint for his costume.
Write an equation that relates
y
yy, the amount of yellow paint in liters, and
b
bb, the amount of blue paint in liters, needed to make the Green Goober's special green paint.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let

y------> the amounts (in liters) of yellow paint

b-----> the amounts (in liters) of blue paint

we know that

$\frac{y}{b}=\frac{3}{5}$

$bb = 53$

so,

$y=\frac{3}{5} by= </p><p>5</p><p>3$

b

therefore

the answer is

$y=\frac{3}{5}by= </p><p>5</p><p>3</p><p> </p><p> b$
