The strength of a salt solution is $p\%$ if $100 \mathrm{ml}$ of the solution contains p grams of salt. If three salt solutions $A, B, C$ are mixed in the proportion $1: 2: 3$, then the resulting solution has strength $20 \%$. If instead the proportion is $3: 2: 1$, then the resulting solution has strength $30 \%$. A fourth solution, $D$, is produced by mixing $B$ and $C$ in the ratio $2: 7$. The ratio of the strength of $D$ to that of $A$ is

A glass contains $500 \mathrm{cc}$ of milk and a cup contains $500 \mathrm{cc}$ of water. From the glass, $150 \mathrm{cc}$ of milk is transferred to the cup and mixed thoroughly. Next, $150 \mathrm{cc}$ of this mixture is transferred from the cup to the glass. Now, the amount of water in the glass and the amount of milk in the cup are in the ratio

Consider three mixtures - the first having water and liquid A in the ratio $1: 2$, the second having water and liquid B in the ratio $1: 3$, and the third having water and liquid $C$ in the ratio $1: 4$. These three mixtures of $A, B,$ and $C$, respectively, are further mixed in the proportion $4:3:2$. Then the resulting mixture has
