      Question

      A 150 litres mixture contains only water and phenyl in

      the ratio 3:2, respectively. If 20 litres of this mixture is replaced with 65 litres of alcohol, then what will be the ratio of quantity of water to that of alcohol in the resultant mixture?
      A 3:5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 6:7 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 6:5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 5:6 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Initial quantity of water in the mixture = 150 Γ— (3/5) = 90 litres After removing 20 litres of the mixture, quantity of water = (150 – 20) Γ— (3/5) = 130 Γ— (3/5) = 78 litres Therefore required ratio = 78:65 = 6:5
