Alligation or Mixture problems
In a colored picture of blue and yellow color, blue and yellow color is used in the ratio of 4:3 respectively. If in upper half, blue : yellow is 2:3, then in the lower half blue : yellow is
Using Alligation rule, (Quantity of cheaper tea) / (Quantity of dearer tea) = (d - m) / (m - c) = 7/3Therefore, they must be mixed in the ratio of 7 : 3.
As per the given question , We are concerned with solid part of the fruit (pure portion). Assume Q kg of dry fruit is obtained.? Solid part in fresh fruit = Solid part in dry fruit? 0·28 × 100 = 0·8 × Q? Q = 35 kg? 35 kg of dry fruit can be obtained from 100 kg fresh fruit.
Suppose the vessel initially contains 8 litres of liquid. Let x litres of this liquid be replaced with water. Quantity of water in new mixture = ❨ 3 - 3x + x ❩ litres 8 Quantity of syrup in new mixture = ❨ 5 - 5x ❩ litres 8 ∴ ❨ 3 - 3x + x ❩ = ❨ 5 - 5x ❩ 8 8 ⟹ 5x + 24 = 40 - 5x ⟹ 10x = 16 ⟹ x = 8 . 5 So, part of the mixture replaced = ❨ 8 x 1 ❩ = 1 . 5
Ratio of milk and water = 2 : 1Quantity of milk = 60 X 2/3 = 40 litreQuantity of water = 20 litreTo make ratio, 1: 2, we have to double the water that of milkSo, water should be 80 litre.That means 80 ? 20 = 60 litre water to be added.
