A specific shade of red nail polish requires 7 parts red to 2 parts yellow. A mixture contains 35 quarts or red and 8 quarts of yellow. How can you fix the mixture to make the correct shade of red?

Sagot :

Answer: add 2 more yellow

Step-by-step explanation:

use the ratio 7 to 2 to solve for 35 to x

[tex]\frac{7}{2} =\frac{35}{x} \\70=7x\\x=10[/tex]

for 35 quarts of red, you will need 10 quarts of yellow to keep the ration proportional. Since it has 8 parts yellow, you need to add 2 more yellow

You can fix the mixture to the correct shade of red by adding 2 more quarts of yellow since the ratio of red to yellow should be 7:2 when you times that ratio by 5 the correct amount to make the specific shade of red would be 35:10
