In a college, the ratio of the number of boys to girls is 8 : 5. If there are 200 girls, the total number of students in the college is

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Quantity of Milk = 60*(2/3) = 40 liters
Quantity of water = 60-40 = 20 liters

As per question we need to add water to get quantity 2:1

=> 40/(20+x) = 1/2
=> 20 + x = 80
=> x = 60 liters

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the numbers be 3x, 2x and 5x.
Then,
9x + 4x + 25x =1862
⇒ 38x = 1862
⇒ x = 49 ⇒ x = 7.
middle number = 2x = 14

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the original Salaries of Ravi and Sumit is 2x and 3x.

So as per question

\begin{aligned}
\frac{2x+4000}{3x+4000} = \frac{40}{57} \\
=> 57(2x+4000) = 40(3x+4000) \\
=> 6x = 68000 \\
=> 3x = 34000 \\

\text{ Sumit Salary =} 3x+4000 \\
34000 + 4000 = 38000

\end{aligned}

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

From question, lets assume that two numbers are 3x and 5x.

\begin{aligned}
\text{then, }\frac{3x - 9}{ 5x - 9} = \frac{12}{23}\\
=> \text{23(3x - 9) = 12(5x - 9)}\\
=> 9x = 99 \\
=> x = 11
\end{aligned}
So numbers are 3(11) = 33, 5(11) = 55.
Smaller number is 33.

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
a:b = 2:3 \\
b:c = 5:8 = (5*\frac{3}{5} : 8*\frac{3}{5}) \\
= 3:\frac{24}{5} \\
a:b:c = 2:3:\frac{24}{5} \\
= 10:15:24 \\
b = 98*\frac{15}{49} \\
= 30
\end{aligned}
