A certain shade of green paint requires 4 parts blue to 5 parts yellow. If you mix 16 quarts of blue paint with 25 quarts of yellow paint, will you get the desired shade of green?

The ratio of blue to yellow paint should be 4:5 to get the desired shade of green. Mixing 16 quarts of blue paint with 25 quarts of yellow does not meet this ratio; thus the exact shade will not be achieved.

The subject of the question is Mathematics, and it involves the concept of ratios and proportions to achieve a desired color mix. To determine whether mixing 16 quarts of blue paint with 25 quarts of yellow paint will produce the desired shade of green, we must ensure that the ratio of blue to yellow in the mixture is the same as the required ratio. The desired ratio is 4 parts blue to 5 parts yellow. Simplifying this ratio, we have 4/5, which means that for every 4 units of blue, there should be 5 units of yellow.

Illustrating this with an equation:
(16 quarts blue) / (25 quarts yellow) = 4/5?
Reducing the given amounts,
16/25 = ? 4/5
Now, the simplified form of 16/25 is 16/25 itself, while 4/5 is equivalent to 0.8. Since 16/25 is not equivalent to 4/5, the mixture of 16 quarts of blue paint and 25 quarts of yellow paint will not give us the exact desired shade of green. Therefore, to get the precise shade, an adjustment in paint quantities to reflect the 4:5 ratio would be needed.

No, the desired shade of green will not be achieved with the given mixture of blue and yellow paint.

To determine if you will get the desired shade of green, we need to compare the ratio of blue to yellow in the desired shade with the ratio of blue to yellow in the mixture. The desired shade requires a ratio of 4 parts blue to 5 parts yellow. The mixture has a ratio of 16 parts blue to 25 parts yellow. To compare the ratios, we can simplify them. The desired shade ratio simplifies to 4:5, and the mixture ratio simplifies to 16:25. Since these ratios are not equivalent, the mixture will not result in the desired shade of green.
