Two tanks A and B contain water at `30^@C` and `80^@C` respectively calculate the amount of water that must be taken from each tank respectively to prepare 40 kg of water at `50^@C`

A

24 kg, 16 kg

B

kg, 24 kg

C

20 kg, 20 kg

D

30 kg, 10 kg

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`m_(1)(1)(50-30)=m_(2)(1)(80-50)`
`2m_(1)=3m_(2),m_(1)+m_(2)=40kg`
So, `m_(1)=24kg,m_(2)=16kg`
