Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table,

To prepare a mixture of a paint, two paints of different shades have been added in the same ratio,

Since, 2 cups of blue paint are mixed with 10 cups of yellow paint

Therefore, ratio in which these shades have been added =

                                                                                                =

                                                                                                =

                                                                                                = 5 : 1

For 1 cup of blue paint number of cups of yellow paint required,

x = 5 cups

For 3 cup of blue paint number of cups of yellow paint required,

x = 15 cups
