So there are 8 pints in a us gallon, 2 drops of blue to make a pint of purple (2x8x50=800) and then 3 drops of red to make purple (3x8x50=1200) I think maybe I've missed a step but (800+1200=2000) so 2000 drops of red and blue combined to make 50 gallons of purple paint.
I think the answer is $113.1. The question was confusing so sorry if it’s wrong.
Mukat gets 40, Usha gets 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Mukat = 5 × Usha
After Mukat gives Usha 16 books ,Usha gets (16 + initial number of books) and Mukat gets (5 × Usha - 16)
Then Mukat = final number of books for Usha
5 × Usha - 16 = Usha + 16
(5 × Usha ) - Usha = 16+16
4 × Usha = 32
Usha = 8 i.e her number of books.
Mukat = 5×8=40.
I HOPE IT'S OK
