Alligation or Mixture problems
In a 100 litre of mixture the ratio of milk and water is 6:4. How much milk must be added to the mixture in order to make the ratio 3 : 1?
As per the given question , We are concerned with solid part of the fruit (pure portion). Assume Q kg of dry fruit is obtained.? Solid part in fresh fruit = Solid part in dry fruit? 0·28 × 100 = 0·8 × Q? Q = 35 kg? 35 kg of dry fruit can be obtained from 100 kg fresh fruit.
% of milk in first bottle = 64% % of milk in second bottle = 100 - 26 = 74% Now, ATQ 64% 74% 68% 6 4 Hence, by using allegation method, Required ratio = 3 : 2
Average money received by each = 118/50 = Rs. 2.36 Therefore, Ratio of No.of boys and girls = 56 : 24 = 7 : 3 Therefore, Number of boys = 50 x (7/10) = 35 Number of girls = 50 - 35 = 15
Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By the rule of alligation, we have : Cost of 1 kg of type 1 rice Cost of 1 kg of type 2 rice ? (20-x)/(x-15) = 2/3 ? 60 - 3x = 2x - 30 ? x = 18.
