2:5

7:9

1:2

3:7

None of these

Explanation:

1)Answer a

Milk and water ratio = 4:1

Given,

(4x-16)/(x-4+20) =12/13

13x-52 = 3x+48

=>10x=100=>x=10

Initial quantity of milk in the vessel= 40 litres

2). Answer b

Let us take initial quantity of a container be x

Remaining milk = Initial (1-Replaced/Initial)ⁿ

12.8= x (1-4/x)²

12.8x=x²+16-8x

5X²-104x+80=0

Simplify the above equation, we get x= 20 and 0.8 (Eliminate)

3). Answer a

CP of Mixture = 44/110*100=Rs.40

4). Answer d

CP of mixture = 62.4/120*100=Rs.52

Required kg = 20/1*1=20 kg

5). Answer b

Total mixture=60 litres

Milk and water in the ratio of 2:1,

So, Milk=40 lit, water=20 lit

Given,

40/(20+x)=1/1

40=20+x=>x=20 litres

6). Answer c

He sells the mixture at cost price and gains 20%. Here gain will be the water. So,

80% of mixture =40 litres

=>Mixture=40/80*100=50 litres

Amount of water added = 50-10=10 litres

7). Answer b

Given,

Wine and water in final process (60/100*81=48.6) and (60/100*19=11.4) respectively

48.6=60 (1-x/60)²

48.6/60=(1-x/60)²

81/100 = (1-x/60)²

9/10=1-x/60

X/60=1-9/10=>x/60=1/10=>x=6 litres

8). Answer d

Vessel A Sugar and Rava ratio = 3:2

Vessel B sugar and Rava ratio = 2:3

Given,

(2x+24)/(3x+16)=16/19

38x+456=48x+256

10x=200=>x=20 litres

Initial quantity = x*5=100 litres

9). Answer b

(5x-25)/(3x-15+40)=5/11

55x-275=15x+125

=>x=10 litres

Initial quantity of milk = 10*5=50 litres

10). Answer e
