Answer 1

Answer:

No. He had not made cherry pink paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Rose Pink red : white = 1 : 2

Cherry Pink red : white = 4 : 3

...he adds 80 litres of red paint and 28 litres of white paint.

The question basically want us to check if it follows the ratio.

To have the cherry pink, the ratio must be 4:3 however the ration of paint he mixed is;

80 : 28 which is equivalent to 20 : 7

This means he had not made cherry pink paint
