Given Two containers P and Q contain milk and water in the ratio of 5 : 2 and 7 : 6 respectively. Find the ratio in which these two mixtures can be mixed so that a new mixture formed in the container R is in the ratio of 8 : 5?
- So the ratio of milk and water are in the ratio 5:2 and 7:6
- Ratio of new mixture formed will be 8:5
- Now milk in the first mixture is 5/7
- Milk in the second mixture will be 7/13
- Milk in the new mixture will be 8/13
- Now the ratio of the mixture will be
- 5/7 – 8/13 : 8/13 – 7/13
- 65 – 56 / 13 : 8 – 7 / 13
- 9/91 : 1/13
- 9/91 / 1/13
- 9/91 x 13/1
- = 9:7
- Therefore the ratio of the two mixture will be 7:9
