Answer 1

Answer:

The final ratio is 75:209.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of 10-star chocolates with Ramesh and Suresh are in the ratio 15:17

Let the number of 10-star chocolates with Ramesh and Suresh be 15x and 17x respectively

Number of dairy silk chocolates are in the ratio 25:19

Let the number of dairy silk chocolates with Ramesh and Suresh be 25y and 19y respectively.

So, according to the given conditions:

(15x + 25y)/ (17x + 19y) = 25/21

On solving this equation, we get:

315x+ 525y = 425x + 475y

So, 50y= 110x

So, y:x = 11:5

Hence, we can write x as 5/11 y

Required to find= 15x/19y

So, The required ratio is =[(5/11y)*15] / 19y

The final ratio is 75:209.
