Question: If 2 kg. of metal, of which 1/3 is zinc and the rest
of copper, be mixed with 3 kg of metal, of which 1/4 is zinc and the rest
is copper, what is the ratio of zinc to copper ? [Ans. (b) 17 : 43]
(a) 7 : 53 (b) 17
: 43 (c)19 : 41 (d) data inadequate (e) none of these
Solution: We avoid the method of "Alligation" for this question. And solve by the following method:
Detailed Explanation:
Concept: We can take the
quantities of metals anything without altering the ratio.
LCM of 3 and 4 is 12
So, let 2×12 and 3×12 i. e.,
24 kg and 36 kg are the weights of two metals.
Quantity of zinc = 1/3rd
of 24 kg + 1/4th of 36 kg = 8 kg + 9 kg = 17 kg
Quantity of Cupper = (60 – 17)
kg = 43 kg
Ratio of Zn: Cu = 17:43 Ans.
