Answer : 1. "193 : 122"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 193 : 122 Explanation: Given the three mixtures ratio as (1:2),(2:3),(3:4) (1+2),(2+3),(3+4) Total content = 3,5,7 Given equal quantities of the three mixtures are mixed, then LCM of 3, 5, 7 = 105 105/3 = 35 , 105/5 = 21 , 105/7 = 15 Now, the individual equal quantity ratios are (35x1, 35x2), (21x2, 21x3), (15x3, 15x4) i.e (35,70), (42,63), (45,60) So overall mixture ratio of milk and water is 35+42+45 : 70+63+60 122:193 But in the question asked the ratio of water to milk = 193 : 122
