Question

60 kg of an alloy X is mixed with 100 kg of an alloy Y. If alloy X has lead and tin in the ratio of 3:2 and alloy Y has tin and copper in the ratio of 1:4, then the amount of tin in the new alloy is
  1. 44 kgs.
  2. 36 kgs.
  3. 53 kgs.
  4. 80 kgs.

A
80 kgs.
B
44 kgs.
C
53 kgs.
D
36 kgs.
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Total amount of tin in alloy x and y
2x5+15y
=25×60+15×100
=24+20=44 kg.
