Tough and Tricky questions: Ratios
In a certain solution consisting of only two chemicals, for every 3 milliliters of Chemical A, there are 7 milliliters of Chemical B. After 10 milliliters of Chemical C are added to this solution, what is the ratio of the quantities of Chemical A to Chemical C?
(1) Before Chemical C was added, there were 50 milliliters of solution.
(2) After Chemical C was added, there were 60 milliliters of solution.

Oh well...I have been dying to get some time to come back to GC...
We need to find ration of qty of Chemical A and Chemical B..
Given Chemical A : Chemical B::3:7
So to find ratio of qty of Chem A to Chem C we need to have some relation between the A and C
St 1 says: Before C added, There was 50 milliters of soln...We can find A and B and then find A:C. Sufficient..Don't go about solving for real qty ratio.
Option B,C and E ruled out
St 2 says : After C is added..total soln is of 60 millilitres..It is same information as St 1 so this is also sufficinet
Ans is D.

The information given, states that the ratio of chemical A to B is 3 to 7 mL, we can rewrite as 3:7 or 3x:7x. We added 10 mL of solution C.
To find the ratio of chemical A to chemical C, we need to find the total volume of the solution before C was added.
(1) Before Chemical C was added, there were 50 milliliters of solution.
We have the total volume of the solution before C was added.
since the proportion is 3 mL to 7 mL or 3x and 7x, we need to solve for x in order to find the total volume for chemical A.
10x = 50
x = 5
The volume of chemical A is 3*5 and is equal to 15 mL.
Therefore the proportion of chemical A to chemical C is 15 mL to 10 mL, or 3:2. sufficient.
(2) After Chemical C was added, there were 60 milliliters of solution.
From this statement, we can solve for the total volume of the solution before C was added.
We can use the same method used for statement 1 to find the answer to the question. sufficient.
the answer is D.
time needed to figure out the answer - 7 seconds.
