Answer:
The problem basically is saying that find two numbers that add up to 8, where one is three times the other.
Step-by-step explanation:
The best thing to do here is to write a simple system of equations.
b+y=8
b=3y
The first equation means that the total blue paint plus the total yellow paint is equal to 8 ounces.
The second equation means that the blue paint is equal to 3 times the yellow paint.
We can isolate b in the first equation to get b=-y+8
-y+8=3y
8=4y
y=2.
So we have that she needs two ounces of yellow paint.
Therefore she needs six ounces of blue paint.
Drag the yellow bar to 2, and the blue bar to 6.

Answer:
58.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
is %
-------- = ---------
of 100
Just plug in the numbers based on what it tells you.
What % = goes in the % spot
of 60 = goes in the of spot
is 35 = goes in the is spot
35 x
--------- = ---------
60 100
Cross multiply:
60 * x = 60x 35 * 100 = 3500
60x = 3500
Divide by 60 to get x by itself.
3500 / 60 = 58.33
Put the percent sign after it:
58.33%
I hope this helps.
