By the rule of alligation, we have: Strength of first jar Strength of 2nd jar 40% Mean
Strength
26% 19% 7 14 So, ratio of 1st and 2nd quantities = 7 : 14 = 1 : 2 Required quantity replaced = 2 3
Strength
26% 19% 7 14 So, ratio of 1st and 2nd quantities = 7 : 14 = 1 : 2 Required quantity replaced = 2 3
