6.8 quarts of white paint

Step-by-step explanation:

If you make 5 parts equal to 0.5 you will have 17 parts blue paint. 17 divided by 5 (to get how many parts we are using) is 3.4. One part blue paint is 3.4 quarts. Times that by two to get how many parts of white paint. We need 6.8 quarts of white paint.
