720 divided by 20 (Note: 20 = 5+3+12) = 36ml
36*12 = 432ml = White
36*3 = 108ml = Yellow
36*5 = 180ml = Red
===============
TOTAL 720ml
180ml (red) - 108ml (yellow) = 72ml
ANSWER: There is 72ml more red paint than yellow in the mixture.
The answer, I think is 72ml, assuming that the container is filled to the top.
Am I right? or has it all gone horribly wrong?
