To decorate a cake, you make a shade of purple icing using 2 drops of red food coloring for every 3 drops of blue. For 12 drops of red food coloring, how many drops of blue food coloring would you need?

18!
You would divide 12 by 2 since that's the number of red dots per blue. Then multiply by three and there's the answer!
