Answer : 2. "13 days"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 13 days Explanation: Ratio of times taken by P & Q = 100 : 130 = 10:13   Let Q takes x days to do the work Then, 10:13 :: 23:x => x = 23x13/10 => x = 299/10   P's 1 day's work = 1/23 Q's 1 day's work = 10/299 (P+Q)'s 1 day's work = (1/23 + 10/299) = 23/299 = 1/13 Hence, P & Q together can complete the work in 13 days.

Answer : 3. "7:5"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 7:5 Explanation: Milk in 1-litre mixture of A = 4/7 litre.  Milk in 1-litre mixture of B = 2/5 litre.  Milk in 1-litre mixture of C = 1/2 litre.   By rule of alligation we have required ratio X:Y       X                  :                 Y     4/7                                2/5              \                      /               (Mean ratio)                   (1/2)             /                      \  (1/2 – 2/5)     :       (4/7 – 1/2)       1/10                      1/1 4    So Required ratio = X : Y = 1/10 : 1/14 = 7:5
