Since we don't know the length of the trip, we can't find an exact answer.
However, we can write an expression for it. First, we let, T, represent the total number of miles for the trip.
Now, just divide T by 33. So our expression is T/33.
If you know the total miles of the trip, just divide it by 33 and you will have the answer.
3/2 = 6
6/4= 6/40= 6 .999= ~ 7
So as we already know the ratio is 3 quarts blue paint to 2 quarts red paint, also written as 3:2. if she only has 1 quart blue paint she will need half of a quart of red paint because the ratio has to remain the same amount. if you multiply one side then you must multiply the other. same goes with division. If she only has 1 quart of red paint then that shows she divided the 2 red by 2. There fore you would have to divided the 3 by 2 in order to get 1.5 which would then make the ratio 1.5:1
