c. How did you determine the ratio of the number of cups of red paint to the number of cups
of blue paint in 5 batches of purple paint?
There are 3 cups of red paint for every 4 cups of blue paint. To find the number of cups of red
paint in 5 batches of purple paint, I calculated 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3. To find the number of cups
of blue paint in 5 batches, I calculated 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4. So the ratio of the number of cups
of red paint to the number of cups of blue paint in 5 batches of purple paint is 15 : 20.

Consider the paint mixture from the Batches of Paint video to complete problems 3–5.

3. A bucket has 12 cups of red paint in it. How many cups of blue paint do you need to add to the
bucket to create the correct shade of purple paint? Draw a tape diagram to show your thinking.

I need to add 16 cups of blue paint to the bucket of red paint to create the correct shade
of purple paint.

4. A bucket has 24 cups of blue paint in it. How many cups of red paint do you need to add to the
bucket to create the correct shade of purple paint?
I need to add 18 cups of red paint to the bucket of blue paint to create the correct shade
of purple paint.

5. A barrel holds 42 cups of paint. How many cups of red paint and how many cups of blue paint
do you need to create 42 cups of the correct shade of purple paint?
I need 18 cups of red paint and 24 cups of blue paint to create 42 cups of the correct shade
of purple paint.

Exploring Ratios by Making Batches
In this lesson, we
• created ratios by making batches of quantities in a given ratio.
• used tape diagrams to determine unknown quantities in ratios.

Examples
1. One batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has 4 peaches and 3 kiwis.

Number of Peaches Number of Kiwis

a. Draw a tape diagram to represent the ratio of the number of peaches to the number of kiwis
in 1 batch of Lacy’s fruit salad.

Number of Peaches

Number of Kiwis

b. Draw a tape diagram to represent the ratio of the number of peaches to the number of kiwis
in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad.

Number of Peaches

Number of Kiwis

Because there are 2 batches of fruit

salad, another way to represent this
situation is to draw one tape diagram
and give each unit a value of 2.
Number of Peaches 2 2 2 2

Number of Kiwis 2 2 2

6 ▸ M1 ▸ TA ▸ Lesson 4 EUREKA MATH2

c. How many peaches and how many kiwis are in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad?
There are 8 peaches and 6 kiwis in 2 batches of Lacy’s fruit salad.

Because 1 batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has

4 peaches and 3 kiwis, 2 batches of her
fruit salad have 8 peaches and 6 kiwis.

d. How does the total number of peaches change every time Lacy makes an additional batch
of fruit salad? How does the total number of kiwis change?
The total number of peaches increases by 4 and the total number of kiwis increases
by 3 every time Lacy makes an additional batch of fruit salad.

e. If Lacy uses 9 kiwis in the fruit salad, how many peaches does she need? Draw a tape
diagram to show your thinking.
Lacy needs 12 peaches.

Number of Peaches

Number of Kiwis

One batch of Lacy’s fruit salad has

4 peaches and 3 kiwis. Three batches
of her fruit salad have 9 kiwis. Creating
three fruit salad tape diagrams shows
that there are 12 peaches.
