Alligation or Mixture problems
A jar was full with honey. A person used to draw out 20% of the honey from the jar and replaced it with sugar solution. He has repeated the same process 4 times and thus there was only 512 gm of honey left in the jar, the rest part of the jar was filled with the sugar solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was:
Suppose the two liquids A and B are 7x litres and 5x litres respectivel Now, when 9 litres of mixture are taken out, Now, when 9 liters of liquid B are added
Customer ratio of Milk and Water is given by Milk :: Water 6.4 0 8 1 + 3 8 = 64 11 64 11 64 10 - 64 11 => Milk : Water = 110 : 11 = 10 : 1 Therefore, the proportionate of Water to Milk for Customer is 1 : 10
If the two alloys are mixed, the mixture would contain 15 gms of each metal and it would cost Rs. (150 + 120) = Rs. 270.
Cost of (15 gms of metal A + 15 gms of metal B) = Rs. 270
Cost of (1 gm of metal A + 1 gm of metal B) = Rs. (270 / 15) = Rs. 18
Cost of 1 gm of metal B = Rs. (18 ? 6) = Rs. 12
Average cost of original piece of alloy = (150 / 15) = Rs. 10 per gm.
Quantity of metal / A Quantity of metal B = (2 / 4) = (1 / 2)
Quantity of metal B = 2 (1 + 2) × 15 = 10 gms.
