Problem# 7

There are two identical jars W and V, containing equal amounts of Water and Vodka respectively. I take a spoon and transfer a spoonful of Vodka from V to W and dissolve it completely. Now I use the same spoon to transfer a spoonful of the liquid (mixture) from W to V and dissolve it completely.

Now both the jars contain the same amount of liquid, but in diferent ratios of the original components. Which jar has the greater quantity of the other component? That's, whether the Vodka in jar W is more that the Water in the jar V, or the other way?

Comments:
the problem becomes very simple if we take some numerrcal examples.
 
..."If"...

Yes, exactly! But then, do it! You'll enjoy and learn something!
 
its easy even whn u do it without numerical values. whn u first pour a spoonful of vodka it is pure vodka, but the second time whn u pour water+vodka into vodka it is not one full spoon of water so there is more vodka in W.
 
"...so there is more vodka in W." Ha Ha!

You are doomed! You forgot that you pour water+vokda in a jar with lesser Vodka than before! Think about it!
 
tehre equal amount
