The correct Answer is:
To find the percentage of Rum in the glass after Sameer mixes the two types of liquids, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the amount of Rum in each type of liquid. - **Type A Liquid:** Contains 35% Rum. - Volume taken = 6 ml - Amount of Rum = 35% of 6 ml = (35/100) * 6 = 2.1 ml - **Type B Liquid:** Contains 40% Rum. - Volume taken = 4 ml - Amount of Rum = 40% of 4 ml = (40/100) * 4 = 1.6 ml ### Step 2: Calculate the total amount of Rum in the mixture. - Total Rum = Amount of Rum from Type A + Amount of Rum from Type B - Total Rum = 2.1 ml + 1.6 ml = 3.7 ml ### Step 3: Calculate the total volume of the mixture. - Total volume = Volume from Type A + Volume from Type B - Total volume = 6 ml + 4 ml = 10 ml ### Step 4: Calculate the percentage of Rum in the glass. - Percentage of Rum = (Total Rum / Total Volume) * 100 - Percentage of Rum = (3.7 ml / 10 ml) * 100 = 37% ### Final Answer: The percentage of Rum in the glass is **37%**. ---
