Question
A farmer had cows and goats in the ratio 8:11. He had 60
more goats than cows. Later, he sold 12 cows and 18 goats. What is the ratio of the number of goats left to the number of cows left?Solution
ATQ,
Let the original number of cows and goats be '8x' and '11x', respectively
According to the question,
11x - 8x = 60
So, x = 60 ÷ 3 = 20
So, original number of cows and goats = 160 and 220, respectively
Required ratio = (220 - 18):(160 - 12) = 202:148 = 101:74
