Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is not correct, a similar question is:
A specific shade of red nail polish requires 7 parts red to 2 parts yellow. A mixture contains 35 quarts of red and 8 quarts of yellow. How can you fix the mixture to make the correct shade of red?
Solution:
A ratio is used in comparing amount of things, showing how the size of thing is compared to the other thing.
Given that:
[tex]Ratio\ of\ red\ nail\ polish=\frac{7\ quarts\ of\ red}{2\ quarts\ of\ yellow} \\\\Ratio\ of\ red\ nail\ polish=\frac{7\ quarts\ of\ red}{2\ quarts\ of\ yellow}*\frac{4}{4} =\frac{28\ quarts\ of\ red}{8\ quarts\ of\ yellow}\\\\Ratio\ of\ mixture\ given\ =\frac{35\ quarts\ of\ red}{8\ quarts\ of\ yellow}\\\\\frac{28\ quarts\ of\ red}{8\ quarts\ of\ yellow}\neq \frac{35\ quarts\ of\ red}{8\ quarts\ of\ yellow}\\\\ \\[/tex]
Therefore to make the correct shade of red, an additional of 7 quarts of red is needed.
