150 kg

135 kg

60 kg

180 kg

- The alloy consists only of A and B, with a ratio of 2:5 between them.

- This means for every 2 parts of A, there are 5 parts of B.

- Total parts in the alloy = 2 (A) + 5 (B) = 7 parts.

- The alloy weighs 210 kg.

- Amount of B can be calculated as: \((\text{Total weight of alloy} \times \text{Parts of B}) \div \text{Total parts}\).

- So, \((210 \times 5) \div 7 = 150\) kg.

- Based on this calculation:

- 150 kg is the correct amount of B in the alloy.

- 135 kg is incorrect.

- 60 kg is incorrect.

- 180 kg is incorrect.

150 kg is the correct answer.
