Two Vessels P And Q Contain 62.5% And 87.5% Of Alcohol Respectively. If 2 Litres From Vessel P Is Mixed With 4 Litres From Vessel Q, The Ratio Of Alcohol And Water In The Resulting Mixture Is?

Answer»

Quantity of ALCOHOL in VESSEL P = 62.5/100 * 2 = 5/4 litres

Quantity of alcohol in vessel Q = 87.5/100 * 4 = 7/2 litres

Quantity of alcohol in the mixture formed = 5/4 + 7/2 = 19/4 = 4.75 litres

As 6 litres of mixture is formed, ratio of alcohol and water in the mixture formed = 4.75 : 1.25 = 19 : 5.

Quantity of alcohol in vessel P = 62.5/100 * 2 = 5/4 litres

Quantity of alcohol in vessel Q = 87.5/100 * 4 = 7/2 litres

Quantity of alcohol in the mixture formed = 5/4 + 7/2 = 19/4 = 4.75 litres
