Answer:
15 gallons red paint and 9 gallons blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
1 gallon unique purple shade = red 5:3 blue
Let's see how many parts are there in total, 5+3=8
24 gallons divided by 8 parts = 3
5x3 =15
3x3=9
We can write a ratio:
15/5 = 36/x
Let "x" equal the unknown part of the triangle.
Solution:
15/5 = 36/x
~Cross multiply
15x = 180
~Divide 15 to both sides
x = 12
Best of Luck!
