      Solution

      ATQ Quantity of milk in 450 ml of mixture = 450 ├Ч 15/(15 + y) Quantity of water in 450 ml of mixture = 450 ├Ч y/(y + 15) According to the question: {6750/(15 + y) + 80}/{450y/(y + 15) + 70} = 3/1 Or, 6750/(15 + y) + 80 = 1350y/(y + 15) + 210 Or, (6750 тАУ 1350y)/(y + 15) = 70 Or, 6750 тАУ 1350y = 70y + 1050 Or, 1420y = 5700 Or, y = 4
