We can use a tape diagram to solve ratio math problems.



Each box represents a number in the original ratio.

Now let’s look at the question.

26

Let’s solve this problem using a tape diagram. We know: Zack’s orange paint is made by mixing 3 cups of red for every 5 cups of yellow.


And, we know: he bought 24 cups of red paint.

This is a 3:5 ratio of red to yellow.

Let’s draw the tapes.red

Let’s label the diagram.24

Now we can figure out how many cups each box represents. If 3 boxes are 24 then…

?

The question is: How many cups of yellow paint does Zack need to make his shade of orange paint?

Since every box must have the same quantity…
