We have 33 gallons of flat paint and 57 gallons of high-gloss paint.

The total gallons sold is the sum of these two.


total\; gallons=33+57=90

The ratio of gallons of high-gloss to the total gallons sold is given by


ratio=(high\; gloss\; gallons)/(\; total\; gallons)=(57)/(90)

Simplify the ratio to the lowest terms by dividing with 3


ratio=(57)/(90)=(19)/(30)

Therefore, the ratio of gallons of high-gloss to the total gallons sold is 19/30
