Analysing the question:

We are given that the ratio between the blue and red color is 8 : 3

as long as the volumes of the colours added simplify to 8 : 3 , the color will be Perfect Purple

Lada's Solution:

Lada mixed 24 mL of blue water with 9 mL of red water

we will try to simplify this ratio:

24:9 = 24 / 9

8 / 3

8 : 3

Hence, the ratio of the colours in Lada's mixture is correct. So, Lada will get perfect purple water

Andre's Solution:

Andre mixed 16mL of Blue water with 9 mL of red water

we will try to simplify this ratio:

16 : 9 = 16 / 9

THIS RATIO CANNOT BE SIMPLIFIED

Hence, the ratio of blue and red color in Andre's mixture is 16 : 9

but the ratio for a perfect purple color is 8 : 3

Since the ratio in Andre's mixture is incorrect, she will NOT get the perfect purple colour

Answer:

Lada will get a color mixture that is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

The mix for Perfect Purple Water contains 8 ml of blue water with 3 ml of red water.

The exact proportion of both ingredients is, blue to red:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

Lada mixes 24 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water. The proportion is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{24}{9}[/tex]

Simplifying by 3:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

The proportion obtained by Lada is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.

Andre mixes 16 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water, his proportion is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{16}{9}[/tex]

This fraction cannot be reduced and its result is not exactly the same as the perfect required proportion.

Thus, Lada will get a color mixture that is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.
