You have two large containers of different size, one is 3 times larger than the other one, and the larger one is nearly full of pure oil, the other one is nearly full of pure vinegar.
You dip a ladle into the oil container and draw an exact ladleful of oil which you now pour into the vinegar container.
You unevenly stir the vinegar+oil container then you dip the same ladle into this container and you draw an exact ladleful of the mixture which you now pour into the oil container.
Bearing in mind the size of the containers, the very small size of the ladle, the fact that oil and vinegar are not miscible and the stirring action mixed the 2 products unevenly in any case, which of the 6 statements below is correct:
- With the information given it is impossible to say for certain whether the quantity of oil remaining in the vinegar container is larger, equal or smaller than the quantity of vinegar remaining in the oil container.
- The quantity of oil in the vinegar container is greater than the quantity of vinegar in the oil container.
- The quantity of oil in the vinegar container is the same as the quantity of vinegar in the oil container.
- The quantity of oil in the vinegar container is less than the quantity of vinegar in the oil container.
- The quantity of oil in the vinegar container is PROBABLY greater than the quantity of vinegar in the oil container, but there is a small probability that it is either the same or smaller.
- The quantity of oil in the vinegar container is PROBABLY smaller than the quantity of vinegar in the oil container, but there is a small probability that it is either the same or greater.
