To determine the equivalent ratios of blue to red for each paint color, we can use the information given in the question.
For Paint Color A, the ratio of blue to red is 2:5. This means that for every 2 parts of blue, there are 5 parts of red. To find equivalent ratios, we can multiply or divide both parts of the ratio by the same number. Let's multiply both parts by 3:
2 * 3 = 6
5 * 3 = 15
So, an equivalent ratio for Paint Color A would be 6:15.
For Paint Color B, the ratio of blue to red is 3:5. Again, we can find equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing both parts of the ratio by the same number. Let's divide both parts by 2:
3 / 2 = 1.5
5 / 2 = 2.5
Since these ratios include decimal values, it's better to express them as a fraction. So, an equivalent ratio for Paint Color B would be 1.5:2.5, which can be simplified as 3:5.
Having found the equivalent ratios, we can now match each one to the correct paint color:
Paint Color A: 6:15
Paint Color B: 3:5
