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.
Milk in 1-litre mixture of A = 4/7 litre. Milk in 1-litre mixture of B = 2/5 litre. Milk in 1-litre mixture of C = 1/2 litre. By rule of alligation we have required ratio X:Y X : Y 4/7 2/5 \ / (Mean ratio) (1/2) / \ (1/2 ? 2/5) : (4/7 ? 1/2) 1/10 1/1 4 So Required ratio = X : Y = 1/10 : 1/14 = 7:5
Rate of rice of quantity 280 kg = Rs. 15.60/kg Rate of rice of quantity 120 kg = Rs. 14.40/kg He want to earn a profit of Rs. 10.45/kg Rate of Mix to sell to get profit of 10.45 = 280 x 15 . 60 + 120 x 14 . 40 280 + 120 + 10 . 45 4368 + 1728 400 + 10 . 45 = > 15 . 24 + 10 . 45 = 25 . 69
Here first two varieties of tea are mixed in equal ratio.So their average price = (126 + 135) /2 = Rs. 130.50 Let price of the third variety per kg be Rs. A; then now mixture is formed by two varieties one at Rs. 130.50 per kg and other at Rs. A per kg in the same ratio 2 : 2 i.e, 1 : 1 By the rule of alligation,(A - 153) / (22.50) = 1 ? A ? 153 = 22.50 ? A = Rs. 175.50
