    60%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There is 56 total ounces of green paint.

    42oz is = 3/4

    14oz is = 1/4

    If she doubles the amount of yellow paint it would be 28oz instead of 14.

    42+28 = 70

    There is now 70oz of paint total which becomes the new denominator.

    The numerator is 42oz because that is how much blue paint there is.

    42/70=.6 or 60%
