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? (Given that C is filled completely on pouring mixture of A and B)

• If vol of A is 4x and vol of B is 12 x.
  Wine in A = 2x and wine in B is 3x.
  Then total wine= 5x.
  Total vol of C = 16 x.
  Portin of wine in C = 5/16

• @ Tanmay,
  
  I have taken A=4x for convenience to avoid fractions.
  
  You can take any value for A and corresponding value of B . the resilt will be same as 5/16.
  U can check it with A = V and B=3V.
