Answer / anu
ans is 15.73lts
a/b=3:5
b/c=8:5
a=3 b=8*5/5==>b=5; c=5*5/8==>25/8
hence a=3 b=5 c=25/8
multipying by 8
becomes a=24 b=40 c=25
Now,
Ingredient a
---------------------
(24/89) x 35 = 9.44 litres
Ingredient b
---------------
40/89 x 35 = 15.73 litres
Ingredient c
--------------------
25/89 x 35 = 9.83 litres
So b=15.73 lts

Answer / vignesh
a/b=3/5,b/c=8/5.
a/(a+b)=3/8,b/(b+c)=8/13
a=((a+b)*3)/8-----1
(b+c)=13*b/8------2
a+b+c=35-----3
substituting the value 1&2 in 3
(((a+b)*3)/8)+13*b/8=35
finally we get
3a+16b=280-----4
solving one we get
5a-3b=0-----5
multiplying eqn 4 by 5 and eqn 5 by 3,we get,subtracting 4&5
15a+80b=1400
15a+9b=0
we get b=15.73

Samuel is obviously a bad fisherman. During the past season, in which he and the five members of his team spent four months on a boat together off Dutch Harbor, AK, he caught fewer fish than any of his teammates. Which of the following, if true, most weakens the argument above? While fishing this past season, Samuel fell sick for a week and did not catch any fish during this time.

Two seasons ago, Samuel fished on another boat off Dutch Harbor and caught more fish than any other member of that boat.
