Correct option is B
Given:
Bucket 'P' contains 7 liters of milk and 3 liters of water.
Bucket 'Q' contains 6 liters of milk and 1 liter of water.
From bucket 'P', 3 liters of the mixture is taken.
From bucket 'Q', 4 liters of the mixture is taken.
Concept Used:
The amount of water in a mixture is proportional to the quantity taken from the total mixture.
Solution:
Water content in bucket 'P' = of the total mixture (since 7 + 3 = 10) .
Water content in bucket 'Q' of the total mixture (since 6 + 1 = 7 ).
For bucket 'P':
In 3 liters of mixture taken from bucket 'P', the amount of water is:
For bucket 'Q':
In 4 liters of mixture taken from bucket 'Q', the amount of water is:
Total water in bucket 'R':
Total water in bucket 'R' is the sum of water from both mixtures:
0.9 + 0.571 = 1.471 liters of water.
1.471 = 1 +
Thus, the quantity of water in bucket 'R' is 1 liters.
