30 gallons of red paint & 20 gallons of blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of red to blue paint drops to make purple paint is 3 : 2
Therefore the total number of gallon, in this case, fifty (50) is equivalent to the total of two ratios (which is 3 + 2 5)
If 5 in the ratio = 50; what about 2 & 3
5 = 50
2 = x
After cross multiplication;
5x = 50 * 2
X = 100/5
X = 20
The same for ratio 3
5 = 50
3 = y
5y = 50 * 3
y = 150/5
y = 30
The answer is therefore; 30 gallons of red paint to 20 gallons of blue paint

<em>x</em>/<em>r</em> + <em>x</em>/<em>w</em> + <em>x</em>/<em>t</em> = 1
<em>x</em> (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>) = 1
<em>x</em> = 1 / (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>)
To make the solution a bit cleaner, multiply through the numerator and denominator by the LCM of each fraction's denominator, <em>rwt</em> :
<em>x</em> = 1 / (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>) • <em>rwt</em> / <em>rwt</em>
<em>x</em> = <em>rwt</em> / (<em>rwt</em>/<em>r</em> + <em>rwt</em>/<em>w</em> + <em>rwt</em>/<em>t</em>)
<em>x</em> = <em>rwt</em> / (<em>wt</em> + <em>rt</em> + <em>rw</em>)
