Mathilde has 20 pints of green paint. She uses 2/5 of it to paint a landscape and 3 /10 of it while painting a clover. She decides that, for her next painting, she will need 14 pints of green paint. How much more paint will she need to buy?

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pints of paint = 20

For landscape :

2/5 * 20 = 8 pints

For clover :

3/10 * 20 = 6 pints

Total used = (8 + 6) = 14

Pints left = 20 - 14 = 6 pints

14 required for next painting

14 - 6 = 8 pints

8 more pints needed
