How much more white paint does he need to add to make Citron Green paint?
Your final line must say, He needs to add ... litres of white paint.

You would need 18 litres more of white paint to create Citron Green paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the Green Apple paint contains 24 litres of green paint in a 2:1 ratio with white paint, we can conclude the mixture contains 12 litres of white paint because 24 / 2 = 12.

In a Citron Green paint mixture, the current paint mixture would contain 24 litres of green paint in a 4:5 ratio with white paint. This would mean there are 30 litres of white paint in this mixture.

24 / 4 = 6

5 x 6 = 30

To make Citron Green paint, you would need 18 litres more of white paint.

30 - 12 = 18
