Answer:

1.775 pints of white paint

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find out how much blue paint was used

In order to do that, we must figure out what is three-fourths of 7.4...

[tex]7.4(\frac{3}{4} ) = 5.625[/tex]

That means that Sasha used 5.625 pints of blue paint.

2) Find out how much white paint was used

In order to do that, we must subtract the amount of blue paint (5.625) from the total amount of paint (7.4)...

7.4 - 5.625 = 1.775

That means that Sasha used 1.775 pints of white paint.

I hope this helps!
