Answer:

15 : 11 : 16

Explanation:

If A, B, and C are in the ratio x : y : z, then we can say that there is x quantity of A, y quantity of B and z quantity of C.

Therefore, the 15 quantity of white paint. 11 quantity of black paint and 16 quantity of blue paint are in the ratio of 15 : 11 : 16.

Since there is no common factor between 15, 11 and 16 then the ratio is in the simplest form and the ratio is 15 : 11 : 16. (Answer)
