  1. There are three containers of equal capacity. The ratio of Sulphuric acid to water in the first container is 3 : 2, that in the second container is 7 : 3 and in the third container it is 11 : 4. If all the liquids are mixed together, then the ratio of Sulphuric acid to water in the mixture will be :
    1. 61 : 29
    2. 61 : 28
    3. 60 : 29
    4. 59 : 29
Correct Option: A

In the new vessel, we have.

Sulphuric acid =
3
+
7
+
11
51015

=
18 + 21 + 22
=
61
3030

Water =
2
+
3
+
4
51015

=
12 + 9 + 8
=
29
3030

∴  Sulphuric acid : Water
=
61
:
29
3030

= 61 : 29
