5. Yesterday your friend made 1 gallon of dark pink paint using the information in the table.
Today she needs to make 3 more gallons of the same shade. She says that she should add 9 parts red tint and 2 parts white tint to 3 gallons of base paint. Explain the error in her reasoning.

Our friend's mistake when wanting to make a new mixture of pink paint is that she is only going to add 2 parts of white paint, the correct formula would be 3.

How to calculate how much paint you need to make 3 gallons of Pink paint?

To mix 3 gallons of pink paint we must take into account the following information:

  • 1 gallon of pink paint is equal to 3 parts red paint and 1 part white paint.

To find out how many parts we need to prepare 3 gallons of pink paint we must multiply the mix values for a gallon by 3.

Red paint:

  • 3 x 3 = 9

White paint:

  • 1 x 3 = 3

Based on the above, we need to use 3 parts white paint and 9 parts red paint to make 3 gallons of pink paint.
