Alligation or Mixture problems
Two casks of 48 and 42 liters are filled with mixture of wine and water13 : 7 and 18 : 17. If the contents of the two casks be mixed and 20 liters of water added to the whole what will be the proportion of wine to water in the result?
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
Rate of rice of quantity 280 kg = Rs. 15.60/kg Rate of rice of quantity 120 kg = Rs. 14.40/kg He want to earn a profit of Rs. 10.45/kg Rate of Mix to sell to get profit of 10.45 = 280 x 15 . 60 + 120 x 14 . 40 280 + 120 + 10 . 45 4368 + 1728 400 + 10 . 45 = > 15 . 24 + 10 . 45 = 25 . 69
Let initially milk and water in container B is 3x liter and x liter respectively
Now, 3x + (8/9) × 18 ? x ? (1/9) × 18 = 30
3x + 16 ? x ? 2 = 30
x = 8
Initial quantity is container B = 8 (3 + 1) = 32 Liter.
