Alligation or Mixture problems
Price of 1 kg of sugar is increased by 30% and the increase is of Rs 48. What is the new price (in Rs) of the sugar per kg?
Ratio of milk andwater = 4:1 Quantity of water = 35/5 = 7 litres Quantity of milk = 35 X 4/5 = 28 litres If 7 litre of water is added, new quantity of water = 14 litre New ratio of milk and water = 28:14 = 2:1
Let the amount of juice and water in original mixture '4x' litre and '3x' litre respectively. According to given data, 4x/3x+6 =8/7 28x=24x+48 28x?24x=48 4x = 48 x = 12 Amount of juice = 4x = 4×12 = 48 litre.
Quantity of alohol in the mixture = 40 x 5/8 = 25 lit Quantity of water = 40 - 25 = 15 lit According to question, Required ratio = 20 - 40 x 20 100 x 5 8 15 - 40 x 20 100 x 3 8 + 40 x 20 100 = 20 15 - 3 + 8 = 1 : 1
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.
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.
