Question
Mixture X has milk and water in the ratio 5:3, while
mixture Y has them in the ratio 4:5. 64 litres of X and 45 litres of Y are combined. What is the ratio of milk to water in the resulting mixture?Solution
ATQ,
Milk in X = (5/8) × 64 = 40 litres
Water in X = (3/8) × 64 = 24 litres
Milk in Y = (4/9) × 45 = 20 litres
Water in Y = (5/9) × 45 = 25 litres
Required ratio = (40 + 20) : (24 + 25) = 60 : 49 = 60 : 49
