Ava is buying paint from Amazon. Ava needs 3/4 cup of blue paint for every 1
cup of white paint. Ava has 28 ounces
of white paint. How much blue paint
does he need?

2.625 cups or 21 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Ava needs 3/4 cup of blue paint for every 1 cup of white paint. So, the ratio is 0.75 : 1.

She has 28 ounces of white paint. But, you have to convert ounces to cups.

1 cup = 8 ounces

28 ounces ÷ 8 ounces/cup = 3.5 cups

Now set up a ratio.

X (how much blue paint is needed) is over 3.5 cups (the amount of white paint she has)

Cross multiply and divide.

x = 0.75 × 3.5

x = 2.625 cups

To convert to ounces, multiply by 8.

2.625 cups × 8 ounces = 21 ounces

Therefore, Ava needs 2.625 cups or 21 ounces of blue paint.

Hope that helps.
