The required proportion of the blue paint is 18 liters.
Given that,
The ratio of yellow and blue colors is 2:3
The proportion of the yellow color is 12 liters.
The proportion of blue color is to be determined.
<h3>What is the Ratio?</h3>
The ratio can be defined as the comparison of the fraction of one quantity towards others. e.g.- water in milk.
Let the proportion of the blue color is x,
Now, the ratio can be given as
12 / x = 2 / 3
x = 12 * 3 / 2
x = 18
Thus, the required proportion of the blue paint is 18 liters.

A paint store mixes yellow and blue paint in a ratio of 2:3 to make green paint. If they used 12 liters of yellow paint, how many liters of blue paint were used?
It means the sum of a number and 3.
Sum means to add up.
6X-9=8X+11
-6x -6x
___________
-9= 2X+11
-11 -11
___________
-20=2X
% %
2 2
__________
-10=x
So the answer is x=-10
