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.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
13 14/15
Step-by-step explanation:
The numerator and denominator of 28/30 have a greatest common factor of 2. Dividing that from each of those numbers gives 14/15. This is the reduced fraction of the mixed number. The integer portion stays the same.
13 28/30 = 13 14/15
If you were on a number line you go over 10 numbers to the left. Therefore, you will pass all of these numbers...
-7,-6,-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2. Your answer will be 2.
