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 C.P. of 1 litre milk be Re. 1. S.P. of 1 litre of mixture = Re.1, Gain = 50 %. 3 ∴ C.P. of 1 litre of mixture = ❨ 100 x 3 x 1 ❩ = 6 350 7 By the rule of alligation, we have: C.P. of 1 litre of water C.P. of 1 litre of milk 0 Mean PriceRe. 6 7 Re. 1 1 7 6 7 ∴ Ratio of water and milk = 1 : 6 = 1 : 6.
w i n e ( l e f t ) w i n e ( a d d e d ) = 343 169 It means w i n e ( l e f t ) w i n e ( i n i t i a l a m o u n t ) = 343 512 (since 343 + 169 = 512) Thus, 343 x = 512 x 1 - 15 k 3 343 512 = 7 8 3 = 1 - 15 k 3 1 - 15 k = 7 8 = 1 - 1 8 Thus the initial amount of wine was 120 liters.
By the rule of alligation, we have: Profit on 1st part Profit on 2nd part 8% Mean Profit 14% 18% 4 6 Ration of 1st and 2nd parts = 4 : 6 = 2 : 3 ∴ Quantity of 2nd kind = ❨ 3 x 1000 ❩kg = 600 kg.
