In a mixture 60 litres, the ratio of milk and water 2 : 1. If the this ratio is to be 1 : 2, then the quanity of water to be further added is

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:

Let A salary be 2k
B salary be 3k and C salary be 5k

\begin{aligned}
\text{A's new salary = }\frac{115}{100}*2k \\
= \frac{23}{10}k \\
\text{B's new salary = }\frac{110}{100}*3k \\
= \frac{33}{10}k \\
\text{C's new salary = }\frac{120}{100}*5k \\
= 6k \\

\text{New ratio = }\\
\frac{23k}{10}:\frac{33k}{10}:6k \\
= 23:33:60 \\
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let the boy are 8x and Girls are 5x

=> 5x = 200
=> x = 40

Total students = 8x+5x = 13x = 13(40) = 520

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let the third number be x.
First Number (120/100)*x = 6x/5
Second Number (150/100)*x = 3x/2

Ratio = 6x/5:3x/2
=> 4:5

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

\begin{aligned}
A:B = 2:3 \\
B:C = 4:5 = (4*\frac{3}{4} : 5*\frac{3}{4}) \\
= 3:\frac{15}{4} \\
C:D = 6:7 = (6*\frac{15}{24} : 7*\frac{15}{24}) \\
= \frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
A:B:C:D = 2:3:\frac{15}{4}:\frac{35}{8} \\
= 16:24:30:35
= 8:12:9
\end{aligned}
