Kaylee is mixing paint for an art project. She mixes 5 ounces of green paint with every 3 ounces of white paint. She needs 50 ounces of the paint mixture. I need it as a equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Kaylee used the amount of green paint in the mixture = x ounces

and the amount of white paint = y ounces

Total amount of mixture = 50 ounces

Equation will be x + y = 50 ------(1)

Ratio of green paint to the white paint in the mixture = 5 : 3

⇒  x : y = 5 : 3

⇒

⇒ x = ---------(2)

Therefore, By solving these two equations by substitution method we can get the amount of green and white paint used in the mixture.
