One glass of milk has 1/3 chocolate syrup. Another glass that is twice as large as the first glass contains 1/4 chocolate syrup. If you put them together, How much of the new mixture is syrup?
1st glass: 60g - 20g syrup
2nd glass:120g - 30g syrup
----------------------------
1st + 2nd:180g - 50g syrup
Ans. 5/18
To find out the amount of chocolate syrup in the new mixture, we need to compare the proportions of chocolate syrup in each glass.
Let's start by considering the first glass. It has 1/3 of its content as chocolate syrup.
Next, we have the second glass, which is twice as large as the first glass. This means that the second glass contains 2 * (1/3) = 2/3 of chocolate syrup.
Now, when we combine the two glasses, we add the amounts of chocolate syrup together. Thus, the total amount of chocolate syrup in the new mixture is 1/3 + 2/3 = 3/3, which simplifies to 1.
Therefore, the new mixture contains 1 part of chocolate syrup out of a total of 3 parts.
