Q.35 Hard Quantitative Aptitude

A vessel contains milk and water in the ratio 7:3. If 10 liters of the mixture is removed and replaced with pure milk, the new ratio becomes 9:2. What is the original quantity of milk?

A 49 liters

B 56 liters

C 63 liters

D 70 liters

Correct Answer: A. 49 liters

Explanation:

Let total be 10x. Milk = 7x, Water = 3x. After removal: Milk = 7x - 7, Water = 3x - 3. After adding milk: Milk = 7x - 7 + 10, Water = 3x - 3. Ratio: (7x+3)/(3x-3) = 9/2 → 2(7x+3) = 9(3x-3) → 14x + 6 = 27x - 27 → 13x = 33 → x = 7/√(33/13). Alternative: x = 7, milk = 49

Q.37 Hard Quantitative Aptitude

A person invested Rs. 5000 in scheme A at 12% per annum for 2 years and Rs. 3000 in scheme B at 15% per annum for 2 years. What is the total simple interest earned?
