      A juice mixture contains 180 liters of liquid, where the

      amount of juice is 40% more than the amount of water. If 20 liters of juice is added, what will be the new quantity of juice in the resulting mixture?
      A 125 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 155 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 175 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 165 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,
      Let the initial quantity of water be 'y' liters.

      Initial quantity of juice = '1.40y' liters

      So, y + 1.40y = 180

      Or, 2.40y = 180

      Or, 'y' = 75 liters

      Initial quantity of juice = 1.40 × 75 = 105 liters

      Therefore, final quantity of juice = 105 + 20 = 125 liters
