In a mixture of 45 litres, the ratio of liquid A and liquid B is 7 ∶ 2. If 11 litres of liquid B is added to the mixture, then what will be the ratio of liquid A and liquid B in the new mixture?1). 7 ∶ 42). 8 ∶ 53). 6 ∶ 54). 5 ∶ 3

Answer»

As, LIQUID A ? Liquid B = 7 ? 2

Quantity of Liquid A in 45 LITERS of mixture = {7/(7 + 2)} × 45 = (7/9) × 45 = 35 liters

Quantity of Liquid B in 45 liters of mixture = 45 – 35 = 10 liters

New Quantity of Liquid B = 10 + 11 = 21 liters

∴ New Ratio = 35 ? 21 = 5 ? 3
