Henry needs 2 pints of red paint and 3 pints of yellow
paint to get a specific shade of orange. If he uses 9 pints
of yellow paint and wants the same orange color, how
many pints of paint will he need altogether? Explain how
you know

henry needs 15 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

3+2=5

9 is 3 time 3

so to get the same orange henry must also

have 3 time 2 for red

9+6=15

Henry will need a total of 15 pints of paint. The 3 pints of yellow were multiplied by 3 to get 9 total, so 2 pints of red would be multiplied by 3 to get 6 total.

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.

b. 1.25 hr

step-by-step explanation:

if you have a constant speed of 60 mph, then you have a ratio between 60 mi. to 1 hr. dividing both sides by 60 we get the ratio

1 mi. to

then mult. both sides by 75 we get the ratio

75 mi. to

simplifying we get

75 mi. to

or 1.25 hr.
