Question
A vessel contains mixture in which 20% is water and
rest is milk. If 35 liters more water added in vessel, then quantity of water becomes 48% of mixture. Find the quantity of milk in the vessel?Solution
Let total mixture in vessel be Q liters.
Initial quantity of water in vessel = 0.20Q
And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.80Q
(0.20Q + 35)/0.80Q = 48/52
10.4Q + 1820 = 38.4Q
28Q = 1820
Q = 65 l
Quantity of milk in vessel = 65 × 80/100 = 52 l
