Question
A vessel contains mixture in which 25% is water and
rest is milk. If 40 liters more water added in vessel, then quantity of water becomes 35% 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 = 0.25Q
And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.75Q
(0.25Q + 40)/0.75Q = 35/65
16.25Q + 2600 = 26.25Q
10Q = 2600
Q = 260 l
Quantity of milk in vessel = 260 × 75/100 = 195 lit
