Question

4. A milkman sells 35 litres of milk in which the ratio of milk and water is 4 : 1. To make more
profit
, he adds another 7 litres of water to the milk. Find the ratio of the milk and water in the
resulting mixture.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1:2

Step-by-step explanation:

m: w= 4:1

total = 4+1 =5 parts = 35 liters

1 part = 35/5 = 7liters

water = 7 liters

milk = 4×7 = 28 liters

more 7 liters of water is added

now water = 7 liters + 7liters = 14 liters

milk : water = 28:14 = 1:2
