Question

in a mixture of 42 litres the ratio of milk to water is 6:1 .another 12 litres is added to the mixture.then the ratio of the milk and water in the resultant mixture is? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Milk : water = 4:1

so, total sum of ratio will be 5→ 35 litres

milk quantity = 4→ 28 litres ( (35*4)/5 = 28lt )

water quantity = 1→ 7 litres ( (35*1)/7 = 7lt )

now, we add 7 litres + 7lt (14 litres)

total water will be 14 litre and milk is 28litres

new ratio, milk : water = 28 : 14 or 2 :1
