Alligation or Mixture problems
Three bottles of equal capacity containing mixture of milk and water in ratio 2 : 5, 3 : 4 and 4 : 5 respectively. These three bottles are emptied into a large bottle. What will be the ratio of milk and water respectively in the large bottle?
Customer ratio of Milk and Water is given by Milk :: Water 6.4 0 8 1 + 3 8 = 64 11 64 11 64 10 - 64 11 => Milk : Water = 110 : 11 = 10 : 1 Therefore, the proportionate of Water to Milk for Customer is 1 : 10
As per figure we can calculate the ration as below.Number of supervisors / Number of labourers = (10 / 100) = 1/10 Total number of labourers = Total no. of supervisors × 10 = 15 × 10 = 150.
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.
