Mixture: Mixing of two or more than two type of quantities gives us a mixture.
Quantities of these elements can be expressed as percentage or ratio.
(1) Percentage:- (20% of sugar in water)
(2)Fraction:- A solution of sugar and water such that
(sugar : water = 1:4)
Alligation: Alligation is a rule which is used to solve the problems related to mixture and its ingredient.It is the rule that enables us to find the ratio in which two or more ingredients at the given price must be mixed to produce a mixture of desired price.
Alligation Rule:-
When two elements are mixed to make a mixture and one of the elements is cheaper and other one is costlier then

Alligation Rule:-
When two elements are mixed to make a mixture and one of the elements is cheaper and other one is costlier then
Here Mean Price is CP of mixture per unit quantity.
Above rule can be written as,
Cheaper Quantity : Costlier Quantity = (D – M) : (M – C)
Trick:
If n different vessels of equal size are filled with the mixture of P and Q in the ratio p1 : q1, p2 : q2, ……, pn : qn and content of all these vessels are mixed in one large vessel, then
