- Question
If P, Y and Z are the weights of cement, fine aggregates and coarse aggregates respetively and W/C is the water cement ratio, the minimum quantity of water to be added to first batch, is obtained by the equation
Options- A. 0.1P + 0.3Y + 0.1Z = W/C x P
- B. 0.3P + 0.1Y + 0.01Z = W/C x P
- C. 0.4P + 0.2Y + 0.01Z = W/C x P
- D. 0.5P + 0.3Y + 0.01Z = W/C x P
- E. 0.2P + 0.5Y + 0.1Z = W/C x P
- Correct Answer
- 0.3P + 0.1Y + 0.01Z = W/C x P
