Answer:
Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons
Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the ratio:
Blue paint : Red paint =
8 : 5
Sum of proportion = 8 + 5 = 13
If the customer need 65 gallons of paint,
a) Number of gallons of blue paint needed =
8/13 × 65 gallons = 40 gallons
b) Number of gallons of red paint needed =
5/13 × 65 gallons = 25 gallons
Therefore:
Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons
Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons
If I read it right then 1. -147
2. -100
120/4 = 30
120 x 2 = 240
240 + 30 = 270
270 grams of flour were used
