Question

3 The volume of it in container A and container B is the ratio 4:7 of the oil in commer
poured into container of the oil in container B is then poured into container A. What is the
ratio of the volume of oil in container A to the volume of oil in container B?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Suppose the initial ratio of Petrol and Kerosine is 3x and 2x

Quantity of Petrol in mixture left =(3x−

5

3

×10)=(3x−6)

Quantity of Kerosine in Mixture left =(2x−

5

2

×10)(2x−4)

⇒

2x−4+10

3x−6

=

3

2

⇒9x−18=4x+12

⇒x=6

Than total quality of mixture =3x+2x=18+12=30
