Alligation or Mixture problems
Rs. 1000 is lent out in two parts, one at 6 % simple interest and the other at 8 % simple interest. The yearly income is Rs. 75. The sum lent at 8 % is ?
Water in 60 gm mixture=60 x 75/100 = 45 gm. and Milk = 15 gm. After adding 15 gm. of water in mixture, total water = 45 + 15 = 60 gm and weight of a mixture = 60 + 15 = 75 gm. So % of water = 100 x 60/75 = 80%.
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
28 x ? 24x = 48
4x = 48
x = 12
Amount of juice = 4x = 4×12 = 48 litre.
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.
Suppose the two liquids A and B are 7x litres and 5x litres respectivel Now, when 9 litres of mixture are taken out, Now, when 9 liters of liquid B are added
