Question

A certain shade of purple paint is created by mixing 4 pints of red paint with 7 pints of blue paint. How many pints of blue paint must be mixed with 20 pints of red paint?

Answer 1

35 pints

Step-by-step explanation:7 divided by 4 is 1.75 so thats how much 1 is so then you do 1.75 times 20 and you get 35

Answer 2

4 times 5 is 20. So we’d multiply 7 by 5 to get 35 pints of blue paint.
