Answer:

6 : 1,183

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 666 tubes of red paint, and 131,313 tubes of white paint.

131313 is NOT divisible by 666 so we need to find a common factor.

666 is divisible by 111

666/111 = 6

So let's try and divide 131,313 by 111

131,313/111 = 1,183

So our ratio of red paint to white paint is

6 : 1,183
