Answer 1

The answer is below

Explanation:

The question is not correct, a similar question is:

A specific shade of red nail polish requires 7 parts red to 2 parts yellow. A mixture contains 35 quarts of red and 8 quarts of yellow. How can you fix the mixture to make the correct shade of red?

Solution:

A ratio is used in comparing amount of things, showing how the size of thing is compared to the other thing.

Given that:

`Ratio\ of\ red\ nail\ polish=(7\ quarts\ of\ red)/(2\ quarts\ of\ yellow) \\\\Ratio\ of\ red\ nail\ polish=(7\ quarts\ of\ red)/(2\ quarts\ of\ yellow)*(4)/(4) =(28\ quarts\ of\ red)/(8\ quarts\ of\ yellow)\\\\Ratio\ of\ mixture\ given\ =(35\ quarts\ of\ red)/(8\ quarts\ of\ yellow)\\\\(28\ quarts\ of\ red)/(8\ quarts\ of\ yellow)\\eq (35\ quarts\ of\ red)/(8\ quarts\ of\ yellow)\\\\ \\`

Therefore to make the correct shade of red, an additional of 7 quarts of red is needed.
