    Quantity of milk is 75% more than that of water in 275

    litres mixture (milk + water). If 25 litres milk is added, then find the quantity of milk in the resultant mixture now.
    A 200 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 198 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 202 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 196 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 194 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the initial quantity of water be 'y' litres.
    Initial quantity of milk = '1.75y' litres
    So, y + 1.75y = 275
    Or, 2.75y = 275
    Or, 'y' = 100 litres
    Initial quantity of milk = 1.75 ├Ч 100 = 175 litres
    Therefore, final quantity of milk = 175 + 25 = 200 litres
