Question

Cody an area or painting a mural they decide they want part of the mural to have a purple background area use is 7 tablespoons of blue to 2 tablespoons of red to make a purple pants. Cody is painting to use more and uses 21 tablespoons of blue and 6 tablespoons of red are the ratios of purple mixture, equivalent do you want another?

Answer 1

To determine if the ratios for the second purple mixture are equivalent, we need to compare the ratio of blue to red in both mixtures.

For the first mixture, the ratio of blue to red is 7:2.
For the second mixture, the ratio of blue to red is 21:6.

To simplify the ratios, we can divide both sides by the greatest common factor.
For the first mixture, the simplified ratio is 7:2.
For the second mixture, the simplified ratio is 7:2 as well.

Since both ratios are the same (7:2), the ratios of purple mixture for Cody's paintings are equivalent.
