Anil mixes cocoa with sugar in the ratio 3 : 2 to prepare mixture A, and coffee with sugar in the ratio 7 : 3 to prepare mixture B. He combines mixtures A and B in the ratio 2 : 3 to make a new mixture C. If he mixes C with an equal amount of milk to make a drink, then the percentage of sugar in this drink will be

Let the volume of mixture A be 200 ml, which implies the quantity of cocoa in the mixture is 120 ml, and the quantity of sugar In the mixture 80 ml.

Similarly, let the volume of the mixture be 300 ml, which implies the quantity of coffee, and sugar in the mixture is 210, and 90 ml, respectively.

Now we combine mixture A, and B in the ratio of 2:3 (if 200 ml mixture A, then 300 ml of mixture B).

Hence, the volume of the mixture C is (200+300) = 500 ml, and the quantity of the sugar is (90+80) = 170 ml. 

Now he mixes C with an equal amount of milk to make a drink, which implies the quantity of the final mixture is (500+500) = 1000 ml.

The quantity of sugar in the final mixture is 170 ml.

Hence, the percentage is 17% 

The correct option is A
