Question
120 litres of mixture contains water and milk in the
ratio 5:6 respectively. If 32 litres of the mixture is replaced by same quantity of water, then find the ratio of water and milk in the final mixture.Solution
Remaining quantity of the original mixture = 120 β 32 = 88 litres Quantity of water in the final mixture = 88 x (5/11) + 32 = 72 litres Quantity of milk in the final mixture = 88 x (6/11) = 48 litres Ratio of water and milk in the final mixture = 72 : 48 = 3:2
