I have a quick question. I am having trouble answering it. Here it is. Thanks in advance for helping! : )

Jordann is painting her kitchen. To get the color she wants, she mixes 6 parts red paint and 2 parts yellow paint.

1) Write the ratio of parts red paint to parts yellow paint as a fraction.

2) Then, write the unit rate of red paint to yellow paint. (How many parts of red paint does she need for every 1 yellow part?)

What color do you imagine her kitchen will be?!

thats the whole question. I think her kitchn will be like an orange or peach. Is that right?
