Joint Admission Test for M.Sc Programmes
Question : Mixture A contains chocolate and milk in the ratio 4 : 3 and mixture B contains chocolate and milk in the ratio 5 : 2. A and B are taken in the ratio 5 : 6 and mixed to form a new mixture. The percentage of chocolate in the new mixture is closest to:
Option 1: 35%
Option 2: 69%
Option 3: 31%
Option 4: 65%
Correct Answer: 65%
Solution : The ratio of chocolate to milk in mixture A = 4 : 3 The ratio of chocolate to milk in mixture B = 5 : 2 Let 5 units taken from mixture A and 6 units taken from mixture B. The ratio of chocolate to milk in new mixture = $(5\times \frac{4}{7} + 6\times \frac{5}{7}):(5\times \frac{3}{7} + 6\times \frac{2}{7})$ = 50 : 27 Percentage of chocolate in new mixture = $\frac{\text{chocolate}}{\text{chocolate + milk}} \times 100$ = $\frac{50}{(50 + 27)} \times 100$ = 64.93% = 65% (approx) Hence, the correct answer is 65%.

Thank you
Hope this information helps you.
The most crucial need for passing the IIT JAM MA test is having a solid understanding of the fundamentals.
For no more than one month, learn the arithmetic of +1 and +2. This will provide you with a solid basis of really practical formulas.
The majority of the questions come from real analysis and linear algebra, thus those are the next subjects you should study. Avoid purchasing expensive books with flashy titles as they are not required for IIT JAM. Recommendations for books in your college course should be followed because they are based on the subjects and information that are genuinely required.
Some of the books I can recommend you are:
1. Calculus - Thomas Finney 2. Real Analysis - Bartle and Sherbet 3. Linear Algebra - Serge Lang 4. Probability - Sheldon Ross
Hope it helps you
