In a chemistry lab two beakers A and B contains 36% and 40% of spirit respectively. If two liters from A is mixed with 4 liters of B. The ratio of sprit and water in the resulting mixture is:1). 19 : 462). 29 : 463). 29 : 554). 29 : 45

Answer»

A has 36% spirit.

Amount of spirit in 2 liters of A = 0.36 × 2 = 0.72 liters

B has 40% spirit.

Amount of spirit in 4 liters of B = 0.4 × 4 = 1.6 liters

Total amount of mixture = 2 + 4 = 6 liters

Amount of spirit in the FINAL mixture = 0.72 + 1.6 = 2.32 liters

Amount of water in the final mixture = 6 – 2.32 = 3.68

Required RATIO = 2.32 : 3.68 = 29 : 46
