Question
Mixtures A and B have milk and water in ratio 3:5 and 2:3
respectively. 40 ml from A and 45 ml from B are mixed. Find the percentage of water in the final mixture.Solution
Water in A = 40 × (5/8) = 25 ml
Water in B = 45 × (3/5) = 27 ml
Total mixture = 40 + 45 = 85 ml
Required percentage = (25 + 27) ÷ 85 × 100 = 61.18%
