Question

In two types of drink the ratio of syrup and water is 2:7 and 1:5 respectively. What will be the ratio of syrup and water if 27 litre of the first drink is mixed with 18 litre of the second drink?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

While extracting syrup and water from 1st drink:

$27 \times \frac{2}{9}$the value comes to be 6L of syrup from 1st liquid.

$27 \times \frac{5}{9}$the value comes to be 21L of water from 1st liquid.

Similarly, 3L syrup from 2nd liquid and 15L water from the same.

Adding all syrup and water from both liquids, the ratio on simplifying comes to be 1:4
