Question
A milk container contains 5% milk & rest water while another contains 50% milk & rest water. What amount of mixture should be taken from both the containers if we require 26 litres mixture with ratio of milk & water as 3: 2?
Answer: Option D
:
D
Quantity of milk in the first container = 120
Quantity of milk in the second container = 12
Applying Alligation:
So, mixture should be taken out from the containers in the ratio = 2: 11
Total amount of mixture required = 26 litres. So, quantity required from 1stcontainer = 4 litres and from the second container = 22 litres.
Hence option (d)
