Answer/Solution
3:2
Steps/Work
If 2 ingredients are mixed, then the required ratio is given by, the rule of allegation C.P of a unit quantity of cheaper (c) C.P. of a unit quantity of dearer (d)
Mean Price (m) d-m m-c Required ratio is cheaper quantity : dearer quantity = (d-m) : (m-c) Answer with Explanation:
Given
i. C.P of a unit quantity of I kind (p) = 3.20 ii. C.P of a unit quantity of II kind (p) = 2.90 iii. Mean price (p) = 3.08 iv. d – m = 3.08 – 2.90 = 0.18 v. m – c = 3.20 – 3.08 = 0.12 Required ratio = 0.18 : 0.12 = 3 : 2
Answer:B
Mean Price (m) d-m m-c Required ratio is cheaper quantity : dearer quantity = (d-m) : (m-c) Answer with Explanation:
Given
i. C.P of a unit quantity of I kind (p) = 3.20 ii. C.P of a unit quantity of II kind (p) = 2.90 iii. Mean price (p) = 3.08 iv. d – m = 3.08 – 2.90 = 0.18 v. m – c = 3.20 – 3.08 = 0.12 Required ratio = 0.18 : 0.12 = 3 : 2
Answer:B
