- Question
There are two mixtures of honey and water in which the ratio of honey and water are as 1:3 and 3:1 respectively. Two litres are drawn from first mixture and 3 litres from second mixture, are mixed to form another mixture. What is the ratio of honey and water in it ?
Options- A. 111:108
- B. 11:9
- C. 103:72
- D. None
- Correct Answer
- 11:9
ExplanationFrom the given data,
The part of honey in the first mixture = 1/4
The part of honey in the second mixture = 3/4
Let the part of honey in the third mixture = x
Then,
1/4 3/4
x
(3/4)-x x-(1/4)
Given from mixtures 1 & 2 the ratio of mixture taken out is 2 : 3
=>
=> Solving we get the part of honey in the third mixture as 11/20
=> the remaining part of the mixture is water = 9/20
Hence, the ratio of the mixture of honey and water in the third mixture is 11 : 9 .

Correct Answer: 4 : 9
Explanation:
Let the amount of juice and water in original mixture '4x' litre and '3x' litre respectively.
According to given data,
4x/3x+6 =8/7
28x=24x+48
28x?24x=48
4x = 48
x = 12
Amount of juice = 4x = 4×12 = 48 litre.
Correct Answer: 2:1
Explanation:
Ratio of milk andwater = 4:1
Quantity of water = 35/5 = 7 litres
Quantity of milk = 35 X 4/5 = 28 litres
If 7 litre of water is added, new quantity of water = 14 litre
New ratio of milk and water = 28:14 = 2:1
Correct Answer: 652
Explanation:
Let the number be N
According to the question
N - 3N/4 = 163
? N/4 = 163
? N = 652
Correct Answer: 20 ltr
Explanation:
Let initial quantity be Q, and final quantity be F
F = Q(1 - 8/Q)
=> Q = 20

Correct Answer: 850
Explanation:
? = 6.39 x 128.948 + 5.215 ÷ 12.189 + 25.056
= 639 x 128.948 + 5.215 x (1/12.189) + 25.056
= 823.97772 + 0.427844778 + 25.056
= 849.4615648 ? 852
Correct Answer: 64
Explanation:
By the formula, speed= Distance/ Time
= (240 + 240)/27 x (18/5)
= 480/27 x 18/5 = 64 km/h
Correct Answer: 2689
Explanation:
1 / .003718 = 10000 / 3.718
= 10000 x ( 1/3.718)
= 10000 x .2689
= 2689.
Correct Answer: 15
Explanation:
Efficiency of A = 4.16%
Efficiency of B = 1.6 x 4.16 = 6.66%
? Number of days required by B = 100/6.66 = 15 days
