Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,

1 quart = 4 cups

1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups

She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,

0.0625 gallons = 1 cup

0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups

This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8

Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16

To make 100 cups of this shade of green,

Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups

Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups

Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups
