161. Rs. 338 is divided between A and B. so A gets 5/8 of what B gets. What amount does B get?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: Rs. 208

Explanation Let's say B gets x amount. Then A gets 5/8 of x. A's amount = (5/8)x Total amount = A's amount + B's amount 338 = (5/8)x + x Combine like terms: 338 = (5x + 8x)/8 338 = 13x/8 338 × 8 = 13x 2704 = 13x x = 208 So B's amount is Rs. 208 .

162. A milkman adds 10 litre water in 10 litre milk. His son takes 15 litre of the milk and adds 5 litre water in it. Find out the amount of water in litres in this milk?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 12.5

Explanation Initially, the milkman has 10 liters of milk and adds 10 liters of water, making the total solution 20 liters (10 milk + 10 water). The ratio of milk to water is 1:1, so the concentration of milk is 50% (10 liters milk / 20 liters total). The son takes 15 liters of this solution, which contains 50% milk, so he takes 7.5 liters of milk (15 liters x 0.5) and 7.5 liters of water. The son then adds 5 liters of water to the 15 liters he took, making the total solution 20 liters again (7.5 milk + 7.5 water + 5 water). Now, the total water in the solution is 7.5 liters (initial water) + 5 liters (added water) = 12.5 liters . So, the amount of water in the milk is 12.5 liters.

163. If 1/3 of a tank holds 80 litres of water, then the quantity of water that 1/2 tank holds is _____?

Check answer and explanation

Answer: 120 litres

Explanation If 1/3 of the tank holds 80 litres, we can set up a proportion to find the total capacity of the tank: 1/3 × Total Capacity = 80 litres To find the total capacity, we can multiply both sides by 3: Total Capacity = 80 litres × 3 = 240 litres Now, we can find the quantity of water that 1/2 tank holds: 1/2 × Total Capacity = 1/2 × 240 litres = 120 litres

164. If Rs. 5,376 is distributed among Ayesha, Sadia, and Madiha in the ratio 8:7:6, what is Sadia’s share?
