There are two qualities of milk Amul and sudha having different prices per litre , their volumes being 130 litres and 180 litre respectively. After equal amounts of milk was removed from both . the milk removed from amul was added to sudha and vice versa . The resulting two types of milk now have the same price .Find the amount of milk drawn out from each type of milk.

• let A=tank containing Amul milk 130L
  and S=tank containing Sudha milk 180L
  now suppose x L milk from A ans S is drawn
  after mixing milk as perthe condition, it gives same proportion of Amul milk in both the tanks
  in A proportion of Amul milk=(130-x)/130
  in S proportion of Amul milk=(x)/180
  solve this for x
  x=(130*180)/310
  x=75.48

  Take Option to solve the question...
  130-75.48=54.52
  180-75.48=104.52
  2x for First quality
  x for second quality
  54.52=50
  104.52=100
  2x/x=100/100=1 So two types of milk same price

• consider equal amount be 50%
  130/2=65
  180/2=90
  now quantity of milk are exchanged
