Here are my Maths problems about Ratio and Rate:
1. If a:b:c = 3:2:1, which of the following must be correct?
I. a/3= b/2= 1
II. a=3, b=2, c=1
III. a+b=5

A. I only
B. II only
C. III only
D. I, II and III

2. Each of the two bottles with the same volume V is filled with a mixture or alcohol and water.
In the first bottle, 7 parts of alcohol is mixed with 3 parts of water.
In the second bottle, x parts of alcohol are mixed with y parts of water.
The mixture in the two bottles are then mixed together to form a new mixture
a)Find the volume of alcohol in the new mixture in terms of x,y and V.
b)Find the volume of water in the new mixture in terms of x,y and V.

Please help me to solve the problems with clear operation processes.

Here is my answer.

1.A. I only

It's because if the ratio of a,b and c is 3:2:1. We can say that a is 3x, b is 2x and c is x. We can use this to calculate the three situations.It's always correct.

In the situationI. a/3= b/2= 1, we can operate it like this:

3x/3=2x/2=1

In the situation II and III, we should remember that it may be correct but not must. It's because as we know before, a=3x , b=2x and c=x, x can be any number. If it is 1, then the two situations will be correct. But in fact, in other situations when x is not equal to one, it will not be correct.

2a. From the question, we know that the volume of the new mixture is 2V. and it has (7+3+x+y) parts.

So the volume of alcohol in the new mixture is:

2V* (x+7)/(7+3+x+y)

= 2V(x+7)/(10+x+y)

b. According to 2a, the volume of water in the new mixture is:

2V* (y+3)/(7+3+x+y)

= 2V(y+3)/(10+x+y)

第一題MC……冇個岩……=0=

2009-01-04 21:35:57 補充:
首先,如果 a:b:c=3:2:1
咁應該有 a=3k, b=2k, c=k

於是有 a/3 = b/2 = c/1 = k
但(I)只有 a/3 = b/2 = 1,所以唔岩。
如果岩既話,就有 a=3, b=2,但唔可以確定。

至於如果 k=1,咁(I), (II)同(III)都岩,
但因為冇講明 k=1,所以都唔可以肯定。

(I), (II), (III) 三個都係may be correct,
但冇一個係must be correct。

好簡單,如果取 a=6, b=4, c=2
咁就有 a:b:c = 3:2:1,但三個都唔岩。
