Let C.P. of 1 liter milk be Re. 1, Gain = 16 2/3 % = 50/3 %and S.P. of 1 liter mixture = Re. 1 then C.P. of 1 liter mixture = (1 x (100 x 3) / 350) = Re. (6 / 7) By the rule of alligation,Hence, required ratio = (1/ 7) : (6 / 7) = 1 : 6
Initial quantity of copper = 80 100 x 50 = 40 g And that of Bronze = 50 - 40 = 10 g Let 'p' gm of copper is added to the mixture => 50 + p x 90 100 = 40 + p => 45 + 0.9p = 40 + p => p = 50 g Hence, 50 gms of copper is added to the mixture, so that the copper is increased to 90%.
According to question , Total C. P. of 200 kg of mixture = Rs. (80 × 6·75 + 120 × 8)Total C. P. of 200 kg of mixture = Rs. 1500Average rate = Rs. 7·50 per kgRequired rate = 120% of Rs. 7·50Required rate = Rs. 9 per kg.
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.
