1). 51 : 1152). 52 : 1153). 53 : 1154). 54 : 115

Answer»

⇒ Let the QUANTITY be 5X, 4x and 5x litres RESPECTIVELY in the 3 containers.

⇒ Quantity of MILK in 1ST container = 5x x (x/6x) = 0.833x

⇒ Quantity of milk in 2nd container = 4x x (3x/8x) = 1.5x

⇒ Quantity of milk in 3rd container = 5x x (5x/6x) = 2.0833x

⇒ Total quantity of milk is = 0.833x + 1.5x + 2.0833x = 4.4166x litres

⇒ The amount of water in the mixture = 14x - 4.4166x = 9.5833x

⇒ Hence, the ratio of milk to water = 4.4166x/9.5833

∴ Ratio of milk to water = 53 : 115
