Read Solution (Total 1)

- option B) 17:43
explaination: let glasses be G1 and G2 , milk be M and water be W.
In G1, 2/5 of M then 1-(2/5) = 3/5 of W.
In G2, 1/6 of M then 1-(1/6) = 5/6 of W.
Ratio = ( M in G1 + M in G2)/( W in G1 + W in G2)
= (2/5 + 1/6) / ( 3/5 + 5/6)
= 17: 43 - 4 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
