Question 11

Two mixtures contain milk and juice in the ratio of 2 : 1 and 4 : 5. If equal volumes of the two mixtures are mixed together, what would be ratio of milk to juice in the resulting mixture?

Solution

As per the question,
Container A contains 2 liter of milk and 1 liter juice
And container B contains 4 liter of milk and 5 liter of juice
Now, Let both container have equal quantity which is 9 liter
So, in the first mixture, 6 liter of milk and 3 liter of juice should be there.
When both will be mixed then total quantity will be 18 liter
out of which 10 liter of milk and 8 liter of juice will be in container.
Hence the required ratio will be 10:8
or 5:4 will be milk and juice in the container.
