      In a solution, the quantity of syrup is (x+10) L and

      water is 70 L. If 5 L syrup and 5 L water are added, the ratio of syrup and water becomes 7:5. Find x% of the initial water.

      Solution

      ATQ, So, we can say, (x+10+5)/(70+5) = 7/5 Or, (x+15)/75 = 7/5 Or, 5(x+15) = 525 Or, 5x + 75 = 525 Or, 5x = 450 → x = 90 Required value = 70×90/100 = 63 L
