      Solution

      Quantity of milk in the initial mixture = 145 Γ— 0.40 = 58 litres Quantity of water in the initial mixture = 145 – 58 = 87 litres Quantity of water is unchanged in the final mixture. So, Quantity of final mixture = (87/25) Γ— 100 = 348 litres Quantity of milk in final mixture = 348 – 87 = 261 litres Value of β€˜x’ = 261 – 58 = 203
