Answer 1

1 batch of sky blue paint:

• blue paint = 2 cups
• white paint = 1 gallon

Clare can make 2 batches of sky blue paint by multiplying the components by 2:

2 batches of sky blue paint:

• blue paint = 2 × 2 = 4 cups
• white paint = 1 × 2 = 2 gallons

So she will need 4 cups of blue paint and 2 gallons of white paint to make 2 batches of sky blue paint.

To make a mixture that is a darker shade of blue, increase the proportion of blue paint and reduce the proportion of white paint.

To make a mixture that is a lighter shade of blue, increase the proportion of white paint and reduce the proportion of blue paint.
