4 vessels of equal sizes contains mixture of spirit and water. The concentration of spirit in 4 vessels are 60 %, 70 %, 75 % and 80 % respectively. If all the 4 mixtures are mixed, find in the resultant mixture the ratio of spirit to water —
-
- 57 : 13
- 23 : 57
- 57 : 23
- None of these
Correct Option: C
Given : - The concentration of spirit in 4 vessels are 60%, 70%, 75% and 80% respectively.
Ratio of spirit to water in the different vessels
⇒ | = 3 : 2, | = 3 : 1, | 40 | 25 |
= 7 : 3, | = 4 : 1 | 30 | 20 |
Now, applying the given rule,
we have the required ratio = | ![]() | + | + | + | ![]() | : | ![]() | + | + | + | ![]() | 5 | 10 | 4 | 5 | 5 | 10 | 4 | 5 |
Required ratio = | : | 20 | 20 |
Required ratio = 57 : 23.
