The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the situation involving the two glasses and the mixtures. ### Step 1: Understand the initial quantities - Glass A contains **400 ml of Sprite**. - Glass B contains **220 ml of Coke**. ### Step 2: Determine the amount of Sprite transferred to Glass B - We take out **4X ml of Sprite** from Glass A and mix it into Glass B. - After this transfer, the amount of Sprite in Glass A becomes **400 - 4X ml**. - The total volume in Glass B becomes **220 ml of Coke + 4X ml of Sprite = (220 + 4X) ml**. ### Step 3: Determine the composition of the mixture in Glass B - In Glass B, after adding the Sprite, we have: - Coke: **220 ml** - Sprite: **4X ml** ### Step 4: Calculate the ratio of Coke to Sprite in Glass B - The ratio of Coke to Sprite in Glass B is: \[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Coke}}{\text{Sprite}} = \frac{220}{4X} \] ### Step 5: Determine the amount of mixture taken from Glass B to Glass C - We take out **3X ml of the mixture** from Glass B and pour it into Glass C. - The total mixture in Glass B is **(220 + 4X) ml**. - The fraction of the mixture taken out is: \[ \frac{3X}{220 + 4X} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the amount of Coke and Sprite in the mixture transferred to Glass C - Amount of Coke in the mixture taken out: \[ \text{Coke in C} = 220 \times \frac{3X}{220 + 4X} \] - Amount of Sprite in the mixture taken out: \[ \text{Sprite in C} = 4X \times \frac{3X}{220 + 4X} \] ### Step 7: Set up the ratio of Coke to Sprite in Glass C - We know the ratio of Coke to Sprite in Glass C is given as **11:4**. - Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ \frac{220 \times \frac{3X}{220 + 4X}}{4X \times \frac{3X}{220 + 4X}} = \frac{11}{4} \] - Simplifying this gives: \[ \frac{220}{4X} = \frac{11}{4} \] ### Step 8: Solve for X - Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 220 \times 4 = 11 \times 4X \] \[ 880 = 44X \] \[ X = 20 \] ### Step 9: Find the remaining quantity of Sprite in Glass B - The amount of Sprite taken out from Glass A is: \[ 4X = 4 \times 20 = 80 \text{ ml} \] - The remaining amount of Sprite in Glass A is: \[ 400 - 80 = 320 \text{ ml} \] - The amount of Sprite in Glass B after the transfer is: \[ 4X = 80 \text{ ml} \] - Therefore, the remaining quantity of Sprite in Glass B is: \[ 80 \text{ ml} \] ### Final Answer: The remaining quantity of Sprite in Glass B is **80 ml**. ---
