      Solution

      ATQ, Initial water in the mixture after removing 10 liters is '4x' liters. Total mixture after removing 10 liters = 4x Γ· 0.5 = '8x' liters. Milk in the mixture after removing = 8x - 4x = '4x' liters. Given, {(4x+10)/4x}=6/4 = x = 5 Total after removing 5 liters = 8 Γ—5= 40 liters. Initial quantity = 40 + 5 = 45 liters
