john mixed 3/4 liter of yellow paint with 1 1/4 liters of red paint to make 2 liters of orange paint.

Question

. He needed more orange paint.

. To make a new batch of orange paint, he used exactly 1 liter of red paint.

Using the same ratio, how many liters of yellow paint should john use to make the new batch of orange paint?

Answer 1

yellow : red
= (3/4) : (5/4)
= 3 : 5

y:1 = 3:5
y/1 = 3/5
y = 3/5

He needs 3/5 L of red

(3/5) : 1
= 3 : 5, the ratio as needed
