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
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.
Let the quantity of the wine in the cask originally be x litres Then, quantity of wine left in cask after 4 operations = x 1 - 8 x 4 litres ? x 1 - 8 x 4 x = 16 81 ? 1 - 8 x 4 = 2 3 4 ? x = 24
Let the milk he bought is 1000 ml Let C.P of 1000 ml is Rs. 100 Here let he is mixing K ml of water He is getting 30% profit => Now, the selling price is also Rs. 100 for 1000 ml => 100 : K% = 100 : 30 10 : 3 is ratio of milk to water => Percentage of milk = 10 x 100/13 = 1000/13 = 76.92%
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
W i n e ( l e f t ) W a t e r ( a d d e d ) = 343 169 It means W i n e ( l e f t ) W i n e ( i n i t i a l a m o u n t ) = 343 512 ? 343 + 169 = 512 Thus , 343 x = 512 x 1 - 15 K 3 ? 343 512 = 7 8 3 = 1 - 15 k 3 => K = 120 Thus the initial amount of wine was 120 liters.
