Question

Two artists are mixing up green paint for a mural. The first artist, Shane, mixes 3 parts blue and 2 parts yellow to make a shade of green. The second artist, Nora, mixes 5 parts blue and 3 parts yellow to make another shade of green. Shane uses 24 ounces of yellow paint in his mixture. How many ounces of blue paint does he use? Explain your reasoning and upload a copy of your ratio table.

PLEASE NO SCAM OR ELSE YOU WILL BE BLOCKED FROM BRAINLY!!!!

Answer 1

:- Shane,

Blue = 3

Yellow = 2

Therefore, the ratio is 3:2.

:- Nora,

Blue= 5

Yellow = 3

Therefore, the ratio is 5:3

Shane's ratio = 3:2

= (3×3)/(2×3)

= 9/6

Nora's ratio = 5:3

= (5×2)×(3×2)

= 10/6

Hence, Shane's yellow part = 6

and Nora's yellow part = 6

Therefore, amount is equal.
