Question: What was the respective ratio between the initial quantities of milk and water? Statements: (I) After taking out 35 litres of the mixture, the remaining quantity of milk in the mixture was six times that of water. (II) When one-fourth of the mixture is taken out, the respective ratio between the resultant quantities of milk and water was 6 : 1.ΒSolution
