      Jar 'A' contains 320 liters of a milk and water

      mixture, with 3/4th of it being milk and the rest being water. 25% of this mixture is transferred to Jar 'B', which originally holds 120 liters of milk and 40 liters of water. What is the new ratio of milk to water in Jar 'B' after the transfer?
      A 4:3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of milk in jar ‘A’ = 320 × (3/4) = 240 litres Quantity of water in jar ‘A’ = 320 – 240 = 80 litres Required ratio = {(0.25 × 240) + 120}:{(0.25 × 80) + 40} = 180:60 = 3:1
