Acertain amount of paint is made by mixing 5 parts blue paint with 2 parts white paint. to get the correct shade, how many quarts of white paint should be mixed with 8.5 quarts of blue paint? what is the answer

3.4 quarts of white

If you have 8.5 quarts of blue paint , and you want to use it all in this mixture, Then you know that 8.5 quart is the five parts of blue in this formula.

8.5 quarts divided by 5 equals 1.7 quarts  so 1.7  quarts is your base unit or one part 

1.7 quarts * 5=8.5 quarts (BLUE)

1.7 quarts *2=3.4 quarts (WHITE)

HOPE THIS HELPS (:
