Given rate of wheat at cheap = Rs. 2.90/kg Rate of wheat at cost = Rs. 3.20/kg Mixture rate = Rs. 3/kg Ratio of mixture = 2.90 3.20 3 (3.20 - 3 = 0.20) (3 - 2.90 = 0.10) 0.20 : 0.10 = 2:1 Hence, wheat at Rs. 3.20/kg be mixed with wheat at Rs. 2.90/kg in the ratio of 2:1, so that the mixture be worth Rs. 3/kg.
S.P. of 1 kg of the mixture = Rs. 68.20, Gain = 10%. C.P. of 1 kg of the mixture = Rs. ❨ 100 x 68.20 ❩ = Rs. 62. 110 By the rule of alligation, we have: Cost of 1 kg tea of 1st kind. Cost of 1 kg tea of 2nd kind. Rs. 60 Mean Price Rs. 62 Rs. 65 3 2 ∴ Required ratio = 3 : 2.
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.
