      Question

      A container contains 240 lit of pure milk and P liters

      of water. Ratio of 25% of mixture to the initial quantity of water is 5 : 4 and when Q liters of water is added to it ratio of total mixture to water becomes 3 : 1. Then find the value of P + Q.
      A 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 100 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 160 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      (240 + P)/4P = 5/4
      240 + P = 5P
      P = 60 liters
      And, (60 + Q)/(300 + Q) = 1/3
      180 + 3Q = 300 + Q
      2Q = 120
      Q = 60 liters
      Required sum = 120
