Answer:
2 batches of orange water = 6 tablespoon of yellow water and 2 tablespoon of red water
4 batches of orange water = 12 tablespoon of yellow water and 4 tablespoon of red water
Step-by-step explanation:
1 batch
Yellow water = 3 teaspoons
Red water = 1 teaspoons
Yellow water : Red water = 3 : 1
2 batches of orange water
Multiply the ratios by 2
Yellow water : Red water
= (3 : 1) * 2
= 6 : 2
2 batches of orange water = 6 tablespoon of yellow water and 2 tablespoon of red water
4 batches of orange water
Multiply the ratios by 4
Yellow water : Red water
= (3 : 1) * 4
= 12 : 4
4 batches of orange water = 12 tablespoon of yellow water and 4 tablespoon of red water
If Y is 8, we solve by subtracting 8 on both sides,
0 = 6x
Divide by 6,
0 = x
x is equal to 0
