    if you need that ratio to have lemon yellow. Find out how many gallons of yellow paint you need for every 1 gallon of white paint.

    5gallons of yellow for 2 gallons of white so

    5:2 = 2.5 gallons of yellow paint for every gallon of white

    multiply 2.5 by 9, Because you need 9gallons of white paint. and you get 22.5 or 23 total gallons of yellow paint for 9gallons of white paint
