    of water. Ratio of 25% of mixture to the initial quantity of water is 2 : 3 and when Q liters of water is added to it ratio of total mixture to water becomes 5 : 4. Then find the value of P + Q.
    A 1020 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1200 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1050 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1060 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    (300 + P)/4P = 2/3
    900 + 3P = 8P
    P = 180 liters
    And, (180 + Q)/(480 + Q) = 4/5
    900 + 5Q = 1920 + 4Q
    Q = 1020 liters
    Required sum = 1200 liters
