      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of milk in the initial mixture = 130 Γ— 0.35 = 45.5 litres Quantity of water in the initial mixture = 130 – 45.5 = 84.5 litres Quantity of water is unchanged in the final mixture. So, Quantity of final mixture = (84.5/50) Γ— 100 = 169 litres Quantity of milk in final mixture = 169 – 84.5 = 84.5 litres Value of β€˜x’ = 84.5 – 45.5 = 39
