and parts two similar vessels contain fruit juice. I filled water in the remaining empty part of these vessels and poured the juice mixed with water of the two vessels into another big vessel. Let’s work out the ratio of measurement of fruit and water in the new vessel.

Let the capacity of vessel be 12 units.


Fruit juice in first vessel


= 4 units


Water in first vessel = 12 – 4 = 8 units


Fruit juice in second vessel


= 3 units


Water in second vessel = 12 – 3 = 9 units


Total fruit juice = 4 + 3 = 7 units


Total water = 8 +9 = 17 units


Fruit juice: Water = 7: 17
