      When 30 litres milk and 18 litres water is added to the mixture, the ratio of milk to water becomes 4 : 3. Find the initial quantity of mixture.

      C 168 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 174 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 180 litres Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let initial quantity of water be ‘n’ litres. So,
      (90 + 30) : (n + 18) = 4 : 3 Or,
      120 : (n + 18) = 4 : 3 Or,
      n + 18 = 90 Or,
      n = 72 Therefore, required quantity of mixture
      = 90 + 72
      = 162 litres
