If one container has one litre paint and the building requires 105 litres for painting, how many container of each type is required to paint the building by darkest blue shade?
उत्तर
In mixture G,
The number of blue containers = 3
The number of white containers = 3
∴ Ratio of blue and white = `3/3` = 1
In mixture H,
The number of blue containers = 4
The number of white containers = 3
∴ Ratio of blue and white = `4/3` = 1.33
Clearly, mixture G would be lighter shade, since for lighter shade white container should be more than blue container.
From the above all mixtures, mixture D is lightest among them.
∴ The total number of containers required for painting = 105
∴ Number of blue containers required for painting = `2/7 xx 105` = 2 × 5 = 30
∴ Number of white containers required for painting = `5/7 xx 105` = 5 × 15 = 75
