Two equal vessels are filled with the mixtures of water and milk in the ratio of 3:4 and 5:3 respectively. If the mixtures are poured into a third vessel, the ratio of water and milk in the third vessel will be
-
- 15 : 12
- 53 : 59
- 20 : 9
- 59 : 53
Correct Option: D
Let the capacity of each vessel =1 litre
In First Vessel
| Water = | litre | |
| 7 |
| Milk = | litre | |
| 7 |
In Second Vessel
| Water = | litre | |
| 8 |
| Milk = | litre | |
| 8 |
In 2 litres of mixture,
Water : milk
| = | + | : | + | ||||
| 7 | 8 | 7 | 8 |
| = | : | ||
| 56 | 56 |
= 59 : 53
