Two alloys, A and B, are each made up of copper, zinc and tin. In alloy A, the ratio of copper to zinc is 3:2 and the ratio of zinc to tin is 3:5.
(a) Determine the ratio, copper: zinc: tin, in alloy A. (b) The mass of alloy A is 250 kg. Alloy B has the same mass as alloy A but the amount of copper is 30% less than that of alloy A. Calculate: (i) the mass of tin in alloy A; (ii) the total mass of zinc and tin in alloy B. (c) Given that the ratio of zinc to tin in alloy B is 3:8, determine the amount of tin in alloy B than in alloy A. Form 2 MathematicsForm 1 Mathematics
Bukra had two bags A and B, containing sugar. If he removed 2 kg of sugar from bag A and added it to bag B, the mass of sugar in bag B would be four times the
mass of the sugar in bag A. If he added 10 kg of sugar to the original amount of sugar in each bag, the mass of sugar in bag B would be twice the mass of the sugar in bag A. Calculate the original mass of sugar in each bag. Form 2 MathematicsForm 1 Mathematics
