Respuesta :

The question is an illustration of equivalent ratios.

  • 3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow  paint
  • 3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint

1 cup of dark orange requires

[tex]Red = 7oz[/tex]

[tex]Yellow =1oz[/tex]

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 3, because [tex]3 \times 1 = 3[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Red = 7oz \times 3 = 21oz[/tex]

[tex]Yellow =1oz \times 3 = 3oz[/tex]

2 cups of light orange require

[tex]Red =3oz[/tex]

[tex]Yellow =13[/tex]

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 1.5, because [tex]2 \times 1.5 = 3[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Red = 3oz \times 1.5 = 4.5oz[/tex]

[tex]Yellow = 13oz \times 1.5 = 19.5oz[/tex]

Hence:

  • 3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow  paint
  • 3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint
