Answer 2

She needs 3/16 cups of blue paint for 3/4 cups of white paint.

Given that,

if Anya mixed 2/3 cups of white paint with 2 2/3 cups blue paint,

We have to determine,

How many cups of blue paint would she need for 3/4 cups of white paint.

According to the question,

if Anya mixed 2/3 cups of white paint with 2 2/3 cups blue paint,

Let, x cups of blue paint would she need for 3/4 cups of white paint.

To determine the value of x calculation must be done in a single unit by using the unitary method following all the steps given below.

Anya mixed 2/3 cups of white paint = 2 2/3  cups blue paint,

x cups of blue paint = 3/4 cups of white paint.

Therefore,

She needs x cups of blue paint is,

$\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{8}{3}\\\\x = \dfrac{3}{4}$

Solving the equation,

$\dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{1}{x} = \dfrac{8}{3}\times \dfrac{4}{3}\\\\ \dfrac{2}{3x} = \dfrac{32}{9}\\\\= 2 \times 9 = 3x \times 32\\\\= 18 = 96x\\\\x = \dfrac{18}{96}\\\\x = \dfrac{3}{16}$

Hence, She needs 3/16 cups of blue paint for 3/4 cups of white paint.
