pool : kerosene 3 : 2(initially) 2 : 3(after replacement) R e m a i n i n g Q u a n t i t y I n i t i a l Q u a n t i t y = 1 - R e p l a c e d Q u a n t i t y T o t a l Q u a n t i t y (for petrol) 2 3 = 1 - 10 k => K = 30 Therefore the total quantity of the mixture in the container is 30 liters.
Total quantity of iron = 4 (1 / 4) + 6 (2 / 3) = 1 + 4 = 5 kg. Total quantity of tin = (4 + 6) ? 5 = 5 kg. In the resultant mixture, iron : tin = 5 : 5 or 1 : 1
W 1 : A 1 W 2 : A 2 . . . . . W N : A N 2 : 3 4 : 5 5 : 7 W 1 W 1 + A 1 = 2 5 W 2 W 2 + A 2 = 4 9 W N W N + A N = 5 12 = 72/180 = 80/180 = 75/180 => 5 : 3 Therefore, the ratio is 5: 3
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
Here, quantity of wine left after third operation = [1 - (5 / 25)]3 x 25 = (4 / 5)3 x 25 = (64 / 125) x 25 = (64 / 5) = 12 4/5 liters. Final ratio of wine to water = (64 / 125) / (1- 64 /125) = (64 / 125) /(61 / 125) Wine : Water = (64 / 61)
