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 C

Explanation:

Treat 2:9 as 2/9 and x:18 as x/18, treat :: as =

So we get 2/9 = x/18
=> 9x = 36
=> x = 4

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Let C = x. Then A = (x—20) and B = (x—40).
x + x - 20 + x - 40 = 120 Or x=60.
A:B:C = 40:20:60 = 2:1 :3.
B's share = Rs. 120*(1/6) = Rs. 20

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 A

Explanation:

In this type of question, we will first try to calculate the ratio of two persons. Once we get ratio then we can easily get our answer. So lets solve this.

\begin{aligned}
\frac{4}{15}A = \frac{2}{5}B \\
A = \left(\frac{2}{5}*\frac{14}{4}\right)B \\
A = \frac{3}{2}B \\
\frac{A}{B} = \frac{3}{2} \\
A:B = 3:2 \\
\text{B's Share = }\frac{2}{5}*1210 = 484
\end{aligned}

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

let x = 1k and y = 3k, so
\begin{aligned}
= \frac{7(k)+3(3k)}{2(k)+1(3k)} \\
= \frac{16k}{5k} \\
= 16:5
\end{aligned}
