Painting A painter mixed 56 quarts of blue and yellow paint
using a ratio of 3 blue to 11 yellow. How many quarts of blue
paint were used?

Respuesta :

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

3 blue + 11 yellow = 14 quarts total

56 quarts ÷ 14 quarts = 4

Multiply each of the colors by 4:

   3 blue × 4 + 11 yellow × 4

=     12 blue   +  44 yellow

=                 56 total
