Question

24) Three containers, A, B and C are having mixtures of milk and water in the ratio 1:5.3:
5 and 5 : 7 respectively. If the capacities of the containers are in the ratio 5: 4:5, then find
the ratio of the milk to the water, if the mixtures of all the three containers are mixed together
(a) 51: 115
(b) 52 : 115
(c) 53: 115
(d) 54: 115
(e) None of these​

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

let the capacity of A,B and C be-

60x, 48x, 60x

In container A -

Milk = 10x

Water = 50x

in container B-

Milk= 18x

water = 30x

container C-

Milk= 25x

Water= 35x

mixing all together-

total capacity= 168x

milk= 10x+18x+25x= 53x

water= 50x+30x+35x= 115x

total= 168x
