Based on the given relationship that Devorah uses 6 drops of yellow food coloring for each drop of blue food coloring, we can determine the missing values in the table. The relationship can be expressed as:

\[ \text{Drops of Yellow} = 6 \times \text{Drops of Blue} \]

Now, we can fill in the table with the corresponding values of drops of yellow for each amount of blue.

| Green Icing | Drops of Blue Food Coloring | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | |-------------|-----------------------------|---|---|---|---|---| | Drops of Yellow Food Coloring | | 6 | 12 | 18 | 24 | 30 |

So, the completed table would be:

  • For 1 drop of blue: 6 drops of yellow
  • For 2 drops of blue: 12 drops of yellow
  • For 3 drops of blue: 18 drops of yellow
  • For 4 drops of blue: 24 drops of yellow
  • For 5 drops of blue: 30 drops of yellow
