Which statement is true about mixing red and yellow paint?
A. using 1 can of red paint and 2 cans of yellow paint would make the same shade of
orange as Rico's mix.
B. Using 6 cans of red paint and 9 cans of yellow paint would make a shade of orange
more red than Rico's mix.
C. Using 4 cans of red paint and 5 cans of yellow paint would make a shade of orange
more yellow than Rico's mix.
D. Using 6 cans of red paint and 8 cans of yellow paint would make a shade or orange
more red than Rico's mix.

D would be the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Rico's orange is 2/3

A's orange is 1/2, which is not the same color.

B's orange is 6/9, which simplifies to 2/3. This would be the same as Rico's, not a shade redder.

C's orange is 4/5. When comparing them equally, C's orange is 12/15, and Rico's is 10/15. C's orange would be redder than Rico's, not yellower.

D is correct because when comparing the two, 6/9, Rico's orange, has more yellow paint than 6/8. Therefore D's orange would have more red than Rico's orange.

Hope this helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.
