Two vessels A and B contains milk and water mixed in the ratio 5 : 3 and 2 : 3. When these mixtures are mixed to form a new mixture containing half milk and half water, they must be taken in the ratio —
-
- 2 : 5
- 3 : 5
- 4 : 5
- 7 : 3
Correct Option: C
As per the given question , we can say that
| Milk in A = | of whole, Milk in B = | of whole, | 8 | 5 |
| Milk in mixture of A and B = | 2 |
∵ By alligation rule ,
| (Mix. in A) : (Mix. in B) = | : | 10 | 8 |
(Mix. in A) : (Mix. in B) = 4 : 5
