Q:

64 boys and 40 girls form a group for social work. During their membership drive, the same number of boys and girls joined the group. How many members does the group have now, if the ratio of boys to girls is 4:3 ?

A) 168 B) 201
C) 147 D) 154
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 168

Explanation:

Let us say x boys and x girls joined the group.

(64 + x)/(40 + x) = 4/3

192 + 3x = 160 + 4x => x = 32

Number of members in the group = 64 + x + 40 + x

= 104 + 2x = 168.

A) 64 B) 76

Given total sum = Rs. 427
And given that 3 times A’s share, 4 times B’s share and 7 times C’s share are all equal.
=> 3A = 4B = 7C
But given

Q:

The milk and water in two vessels A and B are in the ratio 4:3 and 2:3 respectively. In what ratio the liquids in both the vessels be mixed to obtain a new mixture in vessel c consisting half milk and half water?

A) 8:3 B) 6:7
C) 7:5 D) 11:7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 7:5

Explanation:

Milk in 1-litre mixture of A = 4/7 litre. 

Milk in 1-litre mixture of B = 2/5 litre. 

Milk in 1-litre mixture of C = 1/2 litre.

 

By rule of alligation we have required ratio X:Y   

   X                  :                 Y  

  4/7                                2/5  

           \                      /

              (Mean ratio)
                   (1/2) 

           /                      \

 (1/2 – 2/5)     :       (4/7 – 1/2)  

    1/10                      1/1 4 

 

So Required ratio = X : Y = 1/10 : 1/14 = 7:5
