The price of two litres of milk is equal to the price of 12 litres of water. Find the ratio of price of water to milk in a mixture of 3 litres of water and 11 litres of milk.

The price of two litres of milk is equal to the price of 12 litres of water. Find the ratio of price of water to milk in a mixture of 3 litres of water and 11 litres of milk. Correct Answer 22 : 1

Let the price of 1 litre of milk be x. The price of 2 litres of milk = 2 * x = 2x The price of 1 litre of water = 2x / 12 = x / 6 The price of milk in the mixture = x * 11 = 11x The price of water in the mixture = x * 3 / 6 = x / 2 = 0.5x The ratio of price of water to milk in the mixture = 0.5x : 11x = 1 : 22
