I think it 3/18 if it’s lowest terms/simplest form 1/6
The method into creating pink paint is mixing 3 gallons of red paint and 5 gallons of white paint together. This mixture only creates 8 gallons of paint and she needs 16 more. List the factors of 16:
1, 2, 4, 8, and 16
We notice that 8 can be factored out of 16 and becomes:
16 / 8 = 2
If we multiply the sample by 3 (the one already counted plus the two extra), we can discover how much paint is needed. Multiply everything by 3:
3 x 3 = 9
5 x 3 = 15
So in this case, 15 gallons of white paint and 9 gallons of red paint are need and combine for 24 gallons in total.
