    Solution

    Quantity of milk in 315 ml of mixture = 315 ├Ч 20/(20 + x) Quantity of water in 315 ml of mixture = 315 ├Ч x/(x + 20) According to question; {6300/(20 + x) + 65}/{315x/(x + 20) + 55} = 2/1 Or, 6300/(20 + x) + 65 = 630x/(x + 18) + 110 Or, (6300 тАУ 630x)/(x + 20) = 45 Or, 6300 тАУ 630x = 45x + 900 Or, 675x = 5400 Or, x = 8
