Of course, 30kg is correct. I also agree.

You are right @Nitu Bharti. Thanks.

Here the question is "the quantity of water required per bag and W/C ratio is 0.6" then the water required for 1 bag of cement is 30 Kg.

30 kg is correct because for 14 kg the WC ratio becomes 27 which is less than even the hydration water required for a single bag of cement.

36 liter is the correct answer as per empirical formulas.

Water required per bag means:
Cement bag = 50 kg.
W/c ratio = 0.6.
Water = 50 x 0.6.
Hence water = 30 kg.
If we assume water absorption in calculation then water require more than 30 kg.
Cement bag = 50 kg.
W/c ratio = 0.6.
Water = 50 x 0.6.
Hence water = 30 kg.
If we assume water absorption in calculation then water require more than 30 kg.

Its wrong answer is 30 kg.
How can we take water for aggregate if nothing is mentioned?

3 times of cement is fine sand, aggregate is 6 times actually. How you can take aggregate 3 times? Explain please?

37 kg right answer.
5/100*9*(50)+30/100*1*(50).
22.5+15= 37.5 litre water required.
5 mean 5 per cent of aggregate+ 30 per cent of cement= wt of cement.
9 = 6+3 = aggregate ratio.
1= cement ratio.
5/100*9*(50)+30/100*1*(50).

Why we take aggregate 150 kg?
3 times of cement? Explain please?
