Alligation or Mixture problems
If a dairy mixes cow's milk which contains 10% fat with buffalo's milk which contains 20% fat, then the resulting mixture has fat (120/7)% of fat. What ratio was the cow's milk mixed with buffalo's milk?
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
Let initially milk and water in container B is 3x liter and x liter respectively
Now, 3x + (8/9) × 18 ? x ? (1/9) × 18 = 30
3x + 16 ? x ? 2 = 30
x = 8
Initial quantity is container B = 8 (3 + 1) = 32 Liter.
Water in 60 gm mixture=60 x 75/100 = 45 gm. and Milk = 15 gm. After adding 15 gm. of water in mixture, total water = 45 + 15 = 60 gm and weight of a mixture = 60 + 15 = 75 gm. So % of water = 100 x 60/75 = 80%.
Let the price per kg of mixed variety be Rs. P; then By the rule of alligation,Now, (20 - P) / (P - 15) = (2 / 3) ? 60 ? 3P = 2P ? 30 ? 5P = 90 ? P = Rs. 18
