In context of Alligation and mixture the ratio of quantity of cheaper ingredient to the quantity of dearer ingredient =
- A \(\frac{\text { Mean price - C.P. of dearer }}{\text { Mean price - C.P. of cheaper }}\)
- B \(\frac{\text { Mean price - C.P. of cheaper }}{\text { C.P. of dearer - Mean price }}\)
- C \(\frac{\text {C.P. of dearer - Mean price }}{\text { Mean price - C.P. of cheaper}}\)
- D \(\frac{\text {C.P. of cheaper}}{\text { C.P. of dearer}}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(\frac{\text {C.P. of dearer - Mean price }}{\text { Mean price - C.P. of cheaper}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The rule of alligation states that the ratio of quantities is equal to the cross-difference of their prices from the mean. Therefore, the quantity of the cheaper ingredient corresponds to , making Option 3 correct. (C)…
