Answer : 2. "1/6"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 1/6 Explanation: Total work is given by L.C.M of 72, 48, 36 Total work = 144 units Efficieny of A = 144/72 = 2 units/day Efficieny of B = 144/48 = 3 units/day Efficieny of C = 144/36 = 4 units/day   According to the given data, 2 x p/2 + 3 x p/2 + 2 x (p+6)/3 + 3 x (p+6)/3 + 4 x (p+6)/3 = 144 x (100 - 125/3) x 1/100 3p + 4.5p + 2p + 3p + 4p = 84 x 3 - 54 p = 198/16.5 p = 12 days.   Now, efficency of D = (144 x 125/3 x 1/100)/10 = 6 unit/day (C+D) in p days = (4 + 6) x 12 = 120 unit Remained part of work = (144-120)/144 = 1/6.

Answer : 3. "7:5"
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
