  1. Two vessels A and B contain mixture of milk and water in the ratio 4 : 1 and 9 : 11 respectively. They are mixed in the ratio of 3 : 2. Find the ratio of milk and water in the resulting mixture.
    1. 34 : 16
    2. 33 : 17
    3. 16 : 34
    4. 17 : 33
Correct Option: B

Fraction is Milk Water
A: 4 / 5 1 / 5
B: 9 / 20 11 / 20
(3A + 2B) = A and B: ((12 / 5) + (9 / 10)) ((3 / 5) + (11 / 10))

(33 / 10) (17 / 10)
So, Ratio of milk: water in the resulting mixture = 33: 17.
