A square has all equal sides, so 76/4 is 19.
19=x+3
Subtract the three from both sides
16=x
Or
X= 16 cm

Mrs. Cleaver mixes 1.24 liters of red paint with 3 times as much blue paint to make purple paint. She pours the paint equally in
otez555 [7]

The amount of blue paint in each container is \fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}.

Further explanation:

The mixture mixed by Mrs. Cleaver contains 1.24 litres of red paint with 3 times blue paint to obtain purple paint.

So, the amount of blue paint is calculated as,

{3} \times {1.24}=3.72 \text { liters}

Therefore, the total amount of paint mixture is the sum of blue paint and red paint.

\fbox{\begin \\\begin{aligned} \text{Total paint}= 1.24+3.72\\=4.96 \text{ liters}\\\end{aligned}\\\end{minispace}}

Now, as Mrs. Cleaver divides the paint mixture equally in 5 containers so the amount of paint in one container is calculated as,

\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Amount of paint in one container}&= \dfrac{4.96}{5}\\ &=0.992 \text{ liters} \end {aligned}}

Since amount of blue paint mixed is three times the red paint so the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is \dfrac{3}{4}.  

Now, as it is known that the fraction of blue paint to the total paint is \dfrac{3}{4} and the amount of paint in a container is 0.992 \text{ liters} then the blue paint in one container is calculated as,

\boxed{\begin{aligned}\text{Blue paint in one container} =\dfrac{3}{4} \times 0.992\\=0.248 \text{ liters}\end{aligned}}

Thus, the amount of blue paint in each of the five containers is \fbox{\begin\\\ 0.744 liters \end{minispace}}.
