Three milkmen Ramu, Kamu and Namu had 5L, 10L and 15L of milk-water
solution respectively. In the solution that Kamu and Namu had, the ratio
of milk and water were 2 : 3 and 1 : 4 respectively. All of them sat
together and mixed their respective solutions together. They sold the
combined mixture at Rs. 20 per liter and Ramu got Rs. 2.5 for every
liter of mixture sold. What was the
milk-water ratio in the solution that Ramu had with him? (Assume water
comes free of cost and they share the revenue earned in the ratio of
milk content)
Tagme in solution..

1) 1:4
2) 2:3
3) 1:5
4) 3:5

• 1) 1:4
  If ramu had x ltrs of milk and 5-x ltrs of water, then
  money is distributed in ratio of x:4:3 as Kamu and Namu contributed 4 lts and 3 ltr milk respectively.
  x/(x+4+3)=2.5/20
  x=1
  
  so milk-water ratio in the solution that Ramu had with him = 1:4
