There are two containers A and B. A is half filled with wine whereas B which is 3 times the size of A contains one quarter portion wine. If both containers are filled with water and the contents are poured into container C, what portion of container C is wine?
.30
.31
.42
.25

• Assume A:100litres B:300(3 times of A) litres capacity
  now A contains 50%(50L) wine and 50%(50L) water
  and B contains 25%(75L) wine and 75%(225L) water
  Finally C contains 400 litres of which 125L(50+75) of wine and 275(50+225) of water, i.e., portion of wine in container C = (125/400)*100=31%(approximately)

• suppose size of 1st containerA=100l,half filled=50l
  size of 2nd container=3*100=300l,one quarter filled=75l wine.
  total wine=75+50=125l/300+100=5/16=.31
