Question

A glass contains 500 cc of milk and a cup contains 500 cc of water. From the glass, 150 cc of milk is transferred to the cup and mixed thoroughly. Next, 150 cc of this mixture is transferred from the

Accepted Answer

After 150 cc of milk is transferred to the cup, the cup has 150 cc milk and 500 cc water.
Milk : Water in cup = $150 : 500 = 3 : 10$
So, in the 150 cc mixture transferred back to the glass,
Milk transferred = $150 	imes \dfrac{3}{13} = \dfrac{450}{13}$
Water transferred = $150 	imes \dfrac{10}{13}
