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
Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By rule of alligation, we have: Cost of 1 kg of Type 1 rice Cost of 1 kg of Type 2 rice Rs. 15 Mean Price Rs. x Rs. 20 (20 - x) (x - 15) ∴ (20 - x) = 2 (x - 15) 3 ⟹ 60 - 3x = 2x - 30 ⟹ 5x = 90 ⟹ x = 18.
Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel A is 4 : 1 Ratio of Milk and water in a vessel B is 3 : 2 Ratio of only milk in vessel A = 4 : 5 Ratio of only milk in vessel B = 3 : 5 Let 'x' be the quantity of milk in vessel C Now as equal quantities are taken out from both vessels A & B => 4/5 : 3/5 x 3/5-x x - 4/5 => 3 5 - x x - 4 5 = 1 1 (equal quantities) => x = 7/10 Therefore, quantity of milk in vessel C = 7 => Water quantity = 10 - 7 = 3 Hence the ratio of milk & water in vessel 3 is 7 : 3
Let the quantity of the wine in the cask originally be x litres Then, quantity of wine left in cask after 4 operations = x 1 - 8 x 4 litres ? x 1 - 8 x 4 x = 16 81 ? 1 - 8 x 4 = 2 3 4 ? x = 24
