From the given data, let the initial quantity of the mixture = 5x Then, 2 x - 16 3 x - 24 + 40 = 1 4 8 x - 64 = 3 x + 16 5 x = 80 x = 16 lit Then the initial quantity of the mixture = 5x = 5 x 16 = 80 lit.
Let the amount of juice and water in original mixture '4x' litre and '3x' litre respectively. According to given data, 4x/3x+6 =8/7 28x=24x+48 28x?24x=48 4x = 48 x = 12 Amount of juice = 4x = 4×12 = 48 litre.
Total quantity of iron = 4 (1 / 4) + 6 (2 / 3) = 1 + 4 = 5 kg. Total quantity of tin = (4 + 6) ? 5 = 5 kg. In the resultant mixture, iron : tin = 5 : 5 or 1 : 1
