Alligation or Mixture problems
The ratio of expenditure and savings is 3 : 2 . If the income increases by 15% and the savings increases by 6% , then by how much percent should his expenditure increases?
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
Jar A has 36 litres of mixture of milk and water in the respective ratio of 5 : 4 => Quantity of milk in Jar A = 5/9 x 36 = 20 litres Quantity of water in Jar A = 36 - 20 = 16 litres Let quantity of water in Jar B = x litres => Quantity of milk in Jar B = (20 - x) litres Acc. to ques, =>[20 + (20-x)]/(16+x) = 5/3 => 120?3x = 80+5x => 5x +3x = 120?80 => 8x = 40 => 5 litres.
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.
