There are two containers on a table. A and B . A is half full of wine, while B, which is twice A's size, is onequarter full of wine . Both containers are filled with water and the contents are poured into a third container C. What portion of container C's mixture is wine ?

• Let size of A be 2x and that of 4x. A has wine in x portion and B has in one fourth of 4x means x. so water is in x+3x portion . When poured in C it has 2x as wine and 4x as water . So Portion of wine is 2x/6x is 1/3 part.

• Let take the size of A is x and B is 2x and C is X+2X=3x. A contain x/2 wine and B contain 2x/4 portion of wine then total wine=x/2+2x/4=x .C contain x portion of wine and its size is 3x. So the percentage of wine in C container is 1/3.

  total amount=1+2=3ltr of wine and water;
