Given below are two quantities named A and B. Based on the given information, you have to determine the relation between the two quantities. You should use the given data and knowledge of Mathematics to choose between the possible answers. There are two jars which contain different liquids in different quantities Quantity I∶ Quantity of water in Jar 1, if Jar 1 contains mixture of 230 litres which contain juice, water, coke and pepsi. Ratio of quantity of water to juice is 2 : 1 and juice to coke is also 2 ∶ 1 while the ratio of quantity of coke to pepsi is 3 ∶ 2 Quantity II∶ Quantity of water in Jar 2, if Jar 2 contains 10 litres of mixture more than jar 1 and contains juice, coke and water. Water, juice and coke is poured into the jar 8 times in the ratio 3 ∶ 2 ∶ 1. Every time the quantity of a liquid is same.
Jar A comprises a mixture of milk and water in the ratio of 3 : 2 respectively. Another mixture of milk and water is added to jar A and the ratio of milk and water in the resultant mixture changes. What was the initial quantity of mixture present in Jar A? I. The ratio of milk and water in the mixture that was added to Jar A was 2 : 1 respectively. II. The ratio of the new quantities of milk and water in Jar A was 8 : 5 respectively. The quantity of water in the mixture added to jar A was 6 litre.
Jar A has 36 litres of mixture of milk and water in the respective ratio of 5 : 4. Jar B which had 20 litres of mixture of milk and water, was emptied into jar A, and as a result in jar A, the respective ratio of milk and water becomes 5: 3. What was the quantity of water in jar B?
From the 50 liters of milk, 5 liters of milk is taken out and after it 5 liters of water is added to the rest amount of milk. Again 5 liters of milk and water is drawn out and it was replaced by 5 liters of water. If this process is continued similarly for the third time, the amount of milk left after the third replacement:
Jar-A contained a mixture of milk and water in the respective ratio of 5 ∶ 1. The difference between quantities of milk and water in Jar-A was 32 litre. If 12 litres of mixture was taken out and 1.5 litres of water was added to Jar-A. What will be the new respective ratio between quantities of milk and water in Jar-A?
A jar contains only 12 liters of milk and the rest is water. A new mixture in which the concentration of milk is 30%, is to be formed by replacing the jar mixture. How many liters of the mixture shall be replaced with pure milk if initially there were 48 liters of water in the mixture?
The ratio of milk to water in jar I is 3 ∶ 4. The jar II also contains mixture of milk and water. When this two mixtures and mixed in ratio of 2 ∶ 1, then ratio of milk and water in resultant mixture is 3 ∶ 5. Find the ratio of water and mixture in jar II.
A jar was full with honey. A person used to draw out 20% of the honey from the jar and replaced it with sugar solution. He has repeated the same process 4 times and thus there was only 512 gm of honey left in the jar, the rest part of the jar was filled with the sugar solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was filled with the sugar solution. The initial amount of honey in the jar was:
A jar of pickle is picked at random using a filling process in which an automatic machine is filling pickle jars with 2.5 kg of pickle in each jar. Due to few faults in the automatic process, the weight of a jar could vary from jar to jar in the range 1.7 kg to 2.9 kg excluding the latter. Let X denote the weight of a jar of pickle selected. Find the range of X.
