      Question

      Quantity of water in a 540 litres mixture (Milk +

      Water) is 60 litres less than the quantity of milk in it. Find the quantity of water to be mixed so that the quantity of milk in the mixture becomes 50% of the whole mixture.
      A 60 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 40 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 120 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 100 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 80 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Quantity of water in the mixture = {(540 - 60)/2} = 240 litres

      So, quantity of milk in the mixture = (540 - 240) = 300 litres

      Total quantity of the mixture if quantity of milk in the mixture becomes 50% = 300 Γ— (100/50) = 600

      So, quantity of water needs to be mixed = (600 - 540) = 60 litres
