      Question

      Quantity of milk is 55% more than that of water in 204

      litres mixture (milk + water). If 24 litres milk is added, then find the quantity of milk in the resultant mixture now.
      A 148 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 154 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 150 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 144 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 140 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the initial quantity of water be 'y' litres.
      Initial quantity of milk = '1.55y' litres
      So, y + 1.55y = 204
      Or, 2.55y = 204
      Or, 'y' = 80 litres
      Initial quantity of milk = 1.55 × 80 = 124 litres
      Therefore, final quantity of milk = 124 + 24 = 148 litres
