Apaint mixture contains 5 gallons of base for every gallon of color. in 108 gallons of paint, how many gallons of color are there?

There are 18 gallons of color

Step-by-step explanation: One whole paint thingy is 6 gallons because 5 gallons belong to the base and one gallon is color. So is there is 108 gallons than you need to divide 108 by 6 because the 5 from base and one from color. You get 18. So since color is one gallon just do 1x18 and you get 18. You don't need to know how many gallons  of base but it would be 80 gallons of base. 80 because base is worth 5 and 5x18 is 80. Finally to check add the base and color together which is 80+18 and you get 108. That's how we know our answer is correct. ***Always take the extra time to check your work***

Equation:

108 = x(5+1)

108 = x(6)

divide both sides by 6 to isolate the variable aka x

18 = x

flip

x=18

your answer would be b

80 the answer is 80
