The presence of milk in four different containers is 1/3, 2/5, 2/3 an 3/5. A shopkeeper withdraws 2 liter, 3 liter, 1 liter and 4 liter from each container and mixes them in new container. Find the ratio of milk and water in the new container?1). 34 : 312). 37 : 323). 32 : 354). 37 : 41

Answer»

⇒ Presence of milk = 1/3 : 2/5 : 2/3 : 3/5

⇒ Quantity of milk from container 1 = 1/3 × 2 = 2/3 liter

⇒ Quantity of milk from container 2 = 2/5 × 3 = 6/5 liter

⇒ Quantity of milk from container 3 = 2/3 × 1 = 2/3 liter

⇒ Quantity of milk from container 4 = 3/5 × 4 = 12/5 liter

⇒ So, total milk in new container = 2/3 + 6/5 + 2/3 + 12/5 = 74/15 liter

⇒ Total water in new container = 10 – 74/15 = 76/15 liter

REQUIRED RATIO = 74/15 : 76/15 or 37 : 38
