As per figure we can calculate the ration as belowNumber of officers / Number of workers = 1000 / 7000 = 1 / 7 No. of officers = 1 / (1 + 7) × 400 = 50 No. of workers = 400 ? 50 = 350
Ratio of milk andwater = 4:1 Quantity of water = 35/5 = 7 litres Quantity of milk = 35 X 4/5 = 28 litres If 7 litre of water is added, new quantity of water = 14 litre New ratio of milk and water = 28:14 = 2:1
