Ratio of milk and water = 2 : 1
Quantity of milk = 60 X 2/3 = 40 litre
Quantity of water = 20 litre
To make ratio, 1: 2, we have to double the water that of milk
So, water should be 80 litre.
That means 80 ? 20 = 60 litre water to be added.
As given equal amounts of alloys are melted, let it be 1 kg. Required ratio of gold and silver = 5 13 + 5 8 8 13 + 3 8 = 105 103 . Hence, ratio of gold and silver in the resulting alloy = 105/103.
