Alchemy is an occult tradition that arose in the ancient Persian empire. Zosimos of Panopolis was an early alchemist. Zara, reads about Zosimos and decides to try some experiments. One day, she collects two buckets, the first containing one litre of ink and the second containing one litre of cola. Suppose she takes one cup of ink out of the first bucket and pours it into the second bucket. After mixing she takes one cup of the mixture from the second bucket and pours it back into the first bucket. Which one of the following statements holds now?

a) There is more cola in the first bucket than ink in the second bucket.
b) There is as much cola in the first bucket as there is ink in the second bucket.
c) There is less cola in the first bucket than ink in the second bucket.
