Question
There is a 99 litres mixture (soda + water), such that
ratio of quantities of soda and water in it is 6:5, respectively. How much quantity of soda should be mixed in this mixture so that the ratio of quantities of soda to that of water will become 9:5?Solution
Quantity of soda in 99 litres of mixture = (6/11) × 99 = 54 litres Quantity of water in 99 litres of mixture = (5/11) × 99 = 45 litres According to question, Water remains same till the end of the process, So final quantity of soda in the mixture = 45 × (9/5) = 81 litres Quantity of soda to be added = 81 – 54 = 27 litres
