Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Part of milk in first container $ =\frac{3}{3+1}=\frac{3}{4} $ Part of water in first container $ =\frac{1}{3+1}=\frac{1}{4} $ Similarly, part of milk in second container $ =\frac{5}{5+2}=\frac{5}{7} $ Part of water in second container $ =\frac{2}{5+2}=\frac{2}{7} $

$ \therefore $ Required ratio of milk to water when these mixture are mixed together $ \frac{\frac{3}{4}+\frac{5}{7}}{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{7}}=\frac{\frac{21+20}{28}}{\frac{7+8}{28}} $ $ =\frac{41}{28}\times \frac{28}{15}=\frac{41}{15}=41:15 $
