Question

Suppose one person used 2 parts blue paint to 3 parts yellow paint. Another person used 4 parts blue paint to 6 parts yellow paint. Do the ratios of blue paint to yellow paint form a proportional relationship? Explain!

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, ratios of blue paint to yellow paint form a proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

In case of the first person:

Number of blue parts = 2

Number of yellow parts $=3$

In case of another person:

Number of blue parts $=4$

Number of yellow parts $=6$

Ratio of blue parts $=2:4=1:2$

Ratio of yellow parts $=3:6=1:2$

As ration of blue parts is equal to the ratio of yellow parts, ratios of blue paint to yellow paint form a proportional relationship
