Question
In a mixture of 40 liters, the ratio of milk to water is
5:3. How much milk must be replaced by water so that the new ratio becomes 1:1?Solution
Let x liters of milk be replaced by water. Milk in the mixture after replacement = (40 × 5/8) - x = 25 - x. Water in the mixture after replacement = (40 × 3/8) + x = 15 + x. We want the new ratio of milk to water to be 1:1. So, 25 - x = 15 + x. Solving for x: 25 - 15 = 2x 10 = 2x x = 5 liters. Correct answer: a.
