Alligation is a mathematical technique used in mixture problems to find the proportions of different ingredients or components in a mixture based on their individual costs or values and the cost or value of the mixture as a whole. It's particularly helpful in solving problems related to mixtures of liquids, solids, or other substances where each component has a different value.
