Given below are quantities named A,B and C. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the quantities. You should use the given data and your knowledge of mathematics to choose among the possible answer. A milkman has 132 litres mixture of milk and water in a container which contains milk and water in the ratio 7 : 5. The milk man sold 48 litres of the mixture and added 6 litres of pure milk and 20 litres of water to the remaining mixture. The milkman again sold 42 litres of the mixture. Quantity A: Find the quantity of milk left in the container. Quantity B: Find the quantity of water left in the container. Quantity C: 35 litres.

A milkman has 132 litres mixture of milk and water in a container which contains milk and water in the ratio 7 : 5. The milk man sold 48 litres of the mixture and added 6 litres of pure milk and 20 litres of water to the remaining mixture. The milkman again sold 42 litres of the mixture. Quantity A: Find the quantity of milk left in the container. Quantity B: Find the quantity of water left in the container. Quantity C: 35 litres. Correct Answer =,<
Quantity of milk in the initial mixture = 7/12 × 132 = 77 litres
Quantity of water in the initial mixture = 5/12 × 132 = 55 litres
Quantity of milk in the remaining mixture = 77 – 7/12 × 48 = 77 – 28 = 49 litres
Quantity of water in the remaining mixture = 55 – 5/12 × 48 = 55 – 20 = 35 litres
Milk = 49 + 6 = 55 litres
Water = 35 + 20 = 55 litres
Milk : Water = 55 : 55 = 1 : 1
Quantity A:
Quantity of milk left in the container = 55 – 1/2 × 42 = 55 – 21 = 34 litres
Quantity B:
Quantity of water left in the container =55 – 1/2 × 42= 55 – 21 = 34 litres
Quantity C:
35 litres.
∴ Quantity A = Quantity B < Quantity C
