Question
Solution A has milk and water in 1:1 ratio. Solution B
contains them in 5:3 ratio. 40 litres of A and 32 litres of B are mixed. Find the milk to water ratio in the resulting solution.Solution
ATQ,
Milk in A = (1/2) × 40 = 20 litres
Water in A = (1/2) × 40 = 20 litres
Milk in B = (5/8) × 32 = 20 litres
Water in B = (3/8) × 32 = 12 litres
Required ratio = (20 + 20) : (20 + 12) = 40 : 32 = 5 : 4
