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.
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
Ratio of milk and water = 2 : 1Quantity of milk = 60 X 2/3 = 40 litreQuantity of water = 20 litreTo make ratio, 1: 2, we have to double the water that of milkSo, water should be 80 litre.That means 80 ? 20 = 60 litre water to be added.
Quantity of milk @ Rs.10 per liter / Quantity of milk @ Rs. 16 per liter = 1 / 2 So, quantity of milk @ Rs. 10 per liter = 26 / 2 = 13 liter.2nd Method Let us assume shopkeeper buy P liter milk of price @ Rs. 10 per liter.Buy price of 26 liter of milk @ Rs. 16 per liter = 26 x 16Buy price of P liter of milk @ Rs. 10 per liter = P x 10Sell price of total milk ( P + 26 ) @ Rs. 14 per liter = 14 x ( P + 26 ) According to question there is no loss or no profit.Then Buy Price = Sell Price 26 x 16 + P x 10 = 14 x ( P + 26 ) ? 26 x 16 + 10P = 14P + 14 x 26 ? 26 x 16 - 26 x 14 = 14P - 10P? 2 x 26 = 4P? 4P = 2 x 26? P = 2 x 26 / 4 = 13So, quantity of milk @ Rs. 10 per liter = 13 liter.
