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
As given equal amounts of alloys are melted, let it be 1 kg. Required ratio of gold and silver = 5 13 + 5 8 8 13 + 3 8 = 105 103 . Hence, ratio of gold and silver in the resulting alloy = 105/103.
W i n e ( l e f t ) W a t e r ( 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 ? 343 + 169 = 512 Thus , 343 x = 512 x 1 - 15 K 3 ? 343 512 = 7 8 3 = 1 - 15 k 3 => K = 120 Thus the initial amount of wine was 120 liters.
