To find the number of tablespoons of white paint needed if there are 8 tablespoons of red paint, you can use the ratio of red to white paint, which is 4 to 3.
Since you know there are 4 tablespoons of red paint, you can set up the following proportion:
red paint / white paint = 4/3
Since you know the red paint is 8 tablespoons, you can substitute that value into the proportion:
8 / white paint = 4/3
Now you can solve for white paint by cross multiplying:
3 * 8 = 4 * white paint
24 = 4 * white paint
Divide both sides by 4:
white paint = 24/4
white paint = 6
So, 6 tablespoons of white paint are needed if there are 8 tablespoons of red paint.
To find the number of tablespoons of red paint needed if there are 12 tablespoons of white paint, you can use the same ratio of red to white paint.
Set up the proportion:
red paint / white paint = 4/3
Since you know the white paint is 12 tablespoons, you can substitute that value into the proportion:
red paint / 12 = 4/3
Next, cross multiply:
3 * red paint = 12 * 4
3 * red paint = 48
Divide both sides by 3:
red paint = 48/3
red paint = 16
So, 16 tablespoons of red paint are needed if there are 12 tablespoons of white paint.

To find the missing values in the table, we can observe the pattern in the ratios between the values.
We see that for every number in the left column, the number in the right column is 3 times greater.
Using this pattern, we can fill in the missing values:
For x, we need to find the value that is 3 times greater than 2. So, we multiply 2 by 3:
x = 2 * 3 = 6
For y, we need to find the value that is 3 times greater than 5. So, we multiply 5 by 3:
y = 5 * 3 = 15
Therefore, the missing values in the table are:
3 in the third row, and
15 in the fourth row.
