Three liquids having relative densities 2d, 2d and 3d are mixed together in equal proportions by weight. Find the relative density of the resulting mixture.
- 11d/7
- 18d/11
- 13d/9
- 23d/18
Correct answer: 18d/11
Solution
For equal masses m of each liquid, total mass = 3m. Volumes add: V = m/(2d) + m/(2d) + m/(3d) = m(1/2 + 1/2 + 1/3)/d = m(11/6)/d. Mixture density = 3m / V = 3m / (11m/(6d)) = 18d/11.
