      Question

      A container initially holds 120 litres of pure alcohol.

      First, 18 litres of alcohol is removed and replaced with an equal quantity of water. Then, 18 litres of the resulting mixture is removed and replaced again with the same quantity of water. Determine the amount of water currently present in the mixture.
      A 29.4 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 37.6 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 33.3 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 25.6 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 28.9 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of alcohol left in the mixture = 120 X {1 - (18/120) }2 = 86.7 litres So, quantity of water left = 120 - 86.7 = 33.3 litres
