Alligation or Mixture problems
An alloy contains copper and tin in the ratio 3 : 2. If 250 gm of copper is added to this alloy then the copper in it becomes double the quantity of tin in it. What is the amount (in gm) of tin in the alloy?
As per figure we can calculate the ration as below.Number of supervisors / Number of labourers = (10 / 100) = 1/10 Total number of labourers = Total no. of supervisors × 10 = 15 × 10 = 150.
