      of 4:5 respectively is mixed with another 270 ml of mixture B containing tea and milk in the ratio of 2:7 respectively. Find the ratio of tea to milk in the resultant mixture.
      A 12:29 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 14:31 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 16:33 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 18:35 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 20:37 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of tea in 180 ml of mixture A = 4/9 × 180 = 80 ml
      Quantity of milk in 180 ml of mixture A = 5/9 × 180 = 100 ml
      Quantity of tea in 270 ml of mixture B = 2/9 × 270 = 60 ml
      Quantity of milk in 270 ml of mixture B = 7/9 × 270 = 210 ml
      Desired Ratio = (80 + 60):(100 + 210) = 140:310 = 14:31
