It depend on what problem you have
Answer:
White = 1.67 gallons
Blue = 0.33 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
White : blue = 3 : 1
Total ratio = 3 + 1
= 4
Gallons = 2
White = 3 /4 × 2
= 6 /4
= 3/2 gallons
Blue = 1 / 4 × 2
= 2/4
= 1/2
If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1
Total ratio = 5 + 1
= 6
Total gallons = 2
White = 5 / 6 × 2
= 10/6
= 5/3 gallons
Or
= 1.67 gallons
Blue = 1 / 6 × 2
= 2 / 6
= 1/3 gallons
Or
= 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is easier solved by finding the probability that she does NOT do her homework both Monday and Tuesday, which is obtained by the multiplication rule.
P(no HW on Monday) = 1-0.75 = 0.25
P(no HW on Tuesday) = 1-0.75 = 0.25
P(no HW on both Monday and Tuesday) = 0.25*0.25=0.0625
[by the multiplication rule]
This means that the rest of the time (1-0.0625=0.9375) Elsie does her homework either Monday, or Tuesday, or both days.
=>
P(HW either Monday, Tuesday, or both) = 0.9375
(note: in current English, Monday or Tuesday means "either Monday, Tuesday, or both days")
