Question

Jessica gets her favorite shade of purple paint by mixing 1/3

Answer 1

Answer:

8 cups of blue and 12 cups of red

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine 1/3 c of blue + 1/2 c of red = 5/6 c of purple.

(5/6)x = 20

 

x = (6/5)20 = 24

this is applied to each of the above measurements to show that you need 8 c of blue + 12 c of red.
