Answer:
8 times
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 n = 6
Multiply each side by 4/3 to isolate n
4/3 * 3/4 n = 6*4/3
n = 8
Answer: 80 ounces of yellow paint
Working:
As we know 2 ounces of yellow paint to 5 ounces of red paint, we can make a ratio:
2:5
Then we look at the question which says 200 ounces of red paint, so we replace the 5 ounces of red paint in the ratio with 200.
2:200
Then we figure out how much the 5 has been multiplied by to get to 200. We do this by doing
200 divide 5 = 40
Therefore we times the 2 ounces of yellow paint by 40 which gets us:
80:200
We can think of it as a fraction too to confirm our answer:
Simplify 80 / 200
We get 2 / 5.
