A certain shade of light blue is made byixing 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint with 5 quarts of white paint. How much white paint would you need to mix with 4 quarts of blue paint?

We will need quarts of white paint to mix with 4 quarts of blue paint to make the required shade of blue.

Step-by-step explanation:

A certain shade of blue is made by mixing quarts of blue paint with 5 quarts of white paint. This means the ratio of quantity of blue paint to white paint is:

If we want to prepare this certain shade then we have to maintain this ratio of blue paint to white paint.  We have 4 quarts of blue paint and we need to find how many quarts of white paint we need. Let the amount of white paint needed be x quarts. So ratio of blue to white will be 4 : x

Since, this ratio must be equal to 3 : 10, we can set both ratios equal and find the value of x

This mean we will need quarts of white paint to mix with 4 quarts of blue paint to make the required shade of blue.
