Answer:

3 parts

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just ratios. We know that red paint:white paint is equal to 2:1. Therefore we just have to substitute the values in.

Red paint = 6, so

6: White paint (=1)

Meaning that all we have to do is divide 6 by 2 (to find the value of one part), giving us 3 parts.
