Answer:

Batch 1:- Red 2 ounces Blue 1 1/2 ouncesBatch 2:- Red 3 White 3 3/4 ounces.Batch 3:- White 4 1/6 Blue 2 1/2 ounces

.Step-by-step explanation:Batch 1Amount of the white paint = 5/12 of the batch = 2 1/2 or 5/2 ounces.5/12 is equivalent to 5/2 ounces of white paint.1/12 ......................... 5/2 / 5 = 5/10 = 1/2 ounce.Red paint.!/3 of the product contains red paint which is 4/12 so this is 4 times 1/12 = 4 * 1/2 ounce = 2 ounces of red paint.Blue paint.Similarly to the above amount of blue paint = 1/4 =3/12= 3 * 1/2 = 1 1/2 ounces of blue paint.Batch 2.We can calculate the missing quantities in a similar way to Batch 1.Blue Paint = 3/12 of the product = 2 1/4 ( = 9/4) ounces so1 /12 = 9/4 * 1/3 = 9/12 = 3/4 ounceRed Paint:- 1/12 is equivalent to 3/4 ounce so Amount of red paint = 4 * 3/4 = 3 ounces (answer)White paint = 5 * 3/4 = 15/4 = 3 3/4 ounces (answer)Batch 3.Red paint = 3 1/3 ounces is equivalent to 4/12 of the product.So 1/12 = 10/3 / 4 = 10/12 = 5/6 ounces.White paint = 5/6 * 5 = 4 1/6 ounces.Blue paint = 5/6 * 3 = 15/6 = 2 1/2 ounces.
