Answer 1

To determine the correct answer for the amount of red paint being multiplied to get the amount of white paint, we need to know the specific ratio of red paint to white paint from the table mentioned. However, in the absence of that table data, I'll explain how you would approach the problem.

1. If the ratio of red to white is 1:2, you multiply the red paint by 2 to get the white paint.
2. If the ratio is 1:3, you multiply the red paint by 3 to get the white paint.
3. If the ratio is 1:4, you multiply the red paint by 4 to get the white paint.
4. If the ratio is 1:6, you multiply the red paint by 6 to get the white paint.

In order to answer your question accurately, please refer back to the specific ratio from the table you mentioned. If you provide me that ratio, I'd be happy to help you find the correct answer.
