Next Question
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)
