Question

    In a 80 litres mixture of juice and soda, the ratio of

    juice to soda is 2:3. If 30 litres of this mixture is removed and replaced with 10 litres of soda, find the new amount of soda in the mixture.
    A 20 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 40 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 42 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 50 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Total quantity of mixture after removing 30 litres = 80 - 30 = 50 litres

    So, quantity of soda in the 50 litres mixture = 50 × (3/5) = 30 litres

    So, quantity of soda in the final mixture = 30 + 10 = 40 litres
