      Question

      A 250 litres mixture contains only water and phenyl in

      the ratio 3:2, respectively. If 60 litres of this mixture is replaced with 90 litres of alcohol, then what will be the ratio of quantity of water to that of alcohol in the resultant mixture?
      A 12:17 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 17:15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 19:15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 21:17 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Initial quantity of water in the mixture = 250 ร— (3/5) = 150 litres After removing 60 litres of the mixture, quantity of water = (250 โ€“ 60) ร— (3/5) = 190 ร— (3/5) = 114 litres Therefore required ratio = 114:90 = 19:15
