Answer:

18 litres of red paint is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the ratio:

3 litres red paint : 2 litres blue paint

Determine how many litres of red paint is needed to make 30 litres of purple paint.

Since it takes 3 litres of red paint and 2 litres of blue paint to make 5 litres of purple paint, the red paint would be 3/5s of the 30 litres.

3/5 x 30 = 90/5

= 18 litres

Thus, 18 litres of red paint is needed to make 30 litres of purple paint.
