Rule 1:
Diagram Representation
Rule 2:
Two quantities: if mixture 1 having quantities in the
ratio x1:y1 is mixed with mixture 2 having quantities
in the ratio x2:y2 with the resultant mixture having
quantities in the ratio xt:yt then the ratio can be found
by alligating a single quantity’s concentration

x1/x1+y1 x2/x2+y2

xt/xt+yt

FINAL RATIO
Rule 3:

p gram of ingredient solution has a% ingredient in it.


To increase the ingredient content to b% in the
solution
Rule 4:
Removal and Replacement

If a vessel contains “x” liters of liquid A and if “y”


liters be withdrawn and replaced by liquid B, then if
“y” liters of the mixture be withdrawn and replaced
by liquid B, and the operation is repeated ‘n’ times in
all, then :

Quantity of liquid A remaining will be x(1 – y/x)^n
