Answer:
Henry will need 6 pints of red color.
All together he will need 15 pints.
Step-by-step explanation:
Henry needs 2 pints of red paint and 3 pints of yellow paint to get a specific shade of orange.
The ratio is 2:3
Now he uses 9 pints of yellow paint so we need to find the pins of red paint used to get the same orange.
Let the pints of red paint be x
We can relate this as:
[tex]\frac{2}{3} =\frac{x}{9}[/tex]
Solving for x;
[tex]3x=18[/tex]
So, x = 6
Hence, 6 pints of red color are needed.
And all together Henry needs [tex]9+6=15[/tex] pints of paint.
Answer: Henry will need a total of 15 pints of paint. The 3 pints of yellow were multiplied by 3 to get 9 total, so 2 pints of red would be multiplied by 3 to get 6 total.
