Hello!

The artist will need 42 ounces of yellow paint

If you count each yellow corresponding to the blue its pretty simple

7 = 2

14 = 4

21 = 6

28 = 8

35 = 10

42 = 12

So its basicaly adding both numbers up until you reach 12, which will then answer how much yellow you would need

Hope this helps!
