1. To make orange paint, you mix 13 litres of yellow paint to 6 litres of red paint to one litre of white paint. How many litres of each colour do you need to make 10 litres of orange paint?

Question

Dont understand it. The point that you can't simplify 13 is confusing and how am I supposed to get 10 litres of paint?

Answer 1

13 + 6 + 1 = 20

The ratio give you 20 gallons.

What do you do to get only 10 gallons?
