A basic mixture for general use (paths, etc) is: 1 cement : 2 sand : 3 gravel by volume. Mix ingredients dry and add water until the concrete is workable. If too sloppy it may be weak, if too dry it may be difficult to work with.
A basic mortar mix (brick laying, etc) is: 1 water : 2 cement : 3 sand.
it depends on the type of mix and water cement ratio.
If you have added too much water to your mix just add more sand and cement ;but do this right away.
Concrete :- a mix of cement, sand, water, and gravel. Mortar :- a mix of cement, sand, and water
To mix 4.5 parts cement to 1 part water, first measure out the cement and water using a consistent unit, such as cups or pounds. For every 4.5 units of cement, use 1 unit of water. Combine the cement and water in a mixing container, then stir thoroughly until the mixture reaches a uniform, workable consistency. Adjust the water slightly if needed, but avoid adding too much, as it can weaken the mix.
sand=2*Weight of Cement water=cement/2

Add the water to the cement, a little at a time as you mix.

Yes you can. Substitute 20% of the water for the cement mix with latex paint (Water based paint) and mix slow and thorough. Don't over used too much paint it will damage the integrity of the concrete.

If you mix cement ,sand and water you get mortar If you mix cement and stone pebbles or chips you get concrete Concrete.Sometimes gravel is mixed with it, too.
cement/ concrete is made with water, cement mixture and sand. After all of this is added to the right amount, you mix, mix, mix!! Then bofore it drys, pour it ontop the location desired
Why does concrete mix with low water cement ratio resulted in hardened concrete having higher strength than those with high water cement ratio?
equal parts to mix
To effectively mix white cement for crafts, start by adding water to the cement powder gradually until you reach a thick, paste-like consistency. Mix thoroughly to ensure there are no lumps. Use a small amount of water at a time to avoid making the mixture too runny. Experiment with different ratios of water and cement to achieve the desired texture for your craft project.
