the closet common denominator is 40

1/4 = 10/40

1 5/8 = 13/8 = 65/40 = 26/1 cups

2/5 = 16/40

Next we guess and check

10/40 x 40/1 = 400/40 = 10

16/40 x 40/1 = 640/40 = 16

10 + 16 = 26

16 cups of red paint and 10 cups of blue paint are used.

the common denominator is again 40

3/8 = 0.375 = 6 cups

10/40

16/40

4/40

Next we guess and check

10/40 x 8 = 2

16/40 x 8 = 3.2

4/40 x 8 = 0.8

2 + 3.2 + 0.8 = 6

3.2 cups of red paint, 2 cups of blue paint, and 0.8 cups of white paint are used
step 1 a : 16 cups of red paint / 10 of blue

step 2 b : 3.2 cups of red paint / 2 cups of blue paint / 0.8 cups of white paint
