    D 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ Let the total quantity of mixture be '100x' litres. So, quantity of water = 100x × 0.25 = '25x' litres And quantity of milk = 100x - 25x = '75x' litres ATQ: 75x - 25x = 140 Or, 50x = 140 So, x = 2.8 So, quantity of water present in the mixture = 25x = 2.8 × 25 = 70 litres
