      Quantity of water in a 350 litres mixture (alcohol +

      water) is 22 litres less than the quantity of alcohol in it. Find the quantity of water to be mixed so that the quantity of alcohol in the mixture becomes 40% of the whole mixture.
      A 95 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 150 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 115 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 100 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of water in the mixture = (350 – 22)/2 = 164 litres So, Quantity of alcohol in the mixture = (350 – 164) = 186 litres Total quantity of the mixture = 186 x (100/40) = 465 litres Therefore, quantity of water to be mixed = 465 – 350 = 115 litres
