Alligation or Mixture problems
Two bottles contain acid and water in the ratio 2 : 3 and 1 : 2 respectively. These are mixed in the ratio 1 : 3. What is the ratio of acid and water in the new mixture ?
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.
As per the given question , We are concerned with solid part of the fruit (pure portion). Assume Q kg of dry fruit is obtained.? Solid part in fresh fruit = Solid part in dry fruit? 0·28 × 100 = 0·8 × Q? Q = 35 kg? 35 kg of dry fruit can be obtained from 100 kg fresh fruit.
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.
Given, Manideep purchases 30kg of barley at the rate of 11.50/kg nad 20kg at the rate of 14.25/kg. Total cost of the mixture of barley = (30 x 11.50) + (20 x 14.25) => Total cost of the mixture = Rs. 630 Total kgs of the mixture = 30 + 20 = 50kg Cost of mixture/kg = 630/50 = 12.6/kg To make 30% of profit => Selling price for manideep = 12.6 + 30% x 12.6 => Selling price for manideep = 12.6 + 3.78 = 16.38/kg.
Let the initial amount of honey in the jar was K, then 512 = K 1 - 1 5 4 ? 20 % = 20 100 = 1 5 or 512 = K 4 5 4 Therefore, K = 1250 Hence initially the honey in the jar= 1.25 kg
