Question

a specific shade of green glaze requires 5 parts blue to 3 parts yellow. a glaze mixture contains 25 quarts of blue and 9 quarts of yellow. how can you fix the mixture to make the specific shade of green glaze?

Answer 1

if you are multiplying by 5, then the blue needs to be 25 quarts and the yellow needs to be 15 quarts not 9. If you are multiplying by 3 then it would be 9 quarts yellow and 15 quarts blue. hope this helps :)
