Answer:

D. 12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 12/8 (yellow to red paint) is equivalent to 3/2.

You must find 3/2 = 18/?

18 is divided by 3 and equals 6, meaning '?' divided by 2 should also equal 6. By working backwards (2 × 6), you can identify the missing number.

If 18 ÷ 3 = 6, you must do 2 × 6 to find the gallons of red paint necessary.

Shown work:

3/2 = 18/?          3/2 = 18/?  -----  3/2 = 12/8 = 18/12

18 ÷ 3 = 6          

6 × 3 = 18          6 × 2 = 12        

Answer:

12 gallons
