30 litres of the mixture has milk and
water in the ratio 7:3, ie. the solution
has 21 litres of milk and 9 litres of
water.
When you add more water, the amount BB]
of milk in the mixture remains constant
at 21 litres. In the first case, before
addition of further water, 21 litres of
milk accounts for 70% by volume. After
water is added, the new mixture
contains 60% milk and 40% water:
Therefore, the 21 litres of milk accounts
for 60% by volume.
Hence, 100% volume = 21/0.6= 35
litres.
We started with 30 litres and ended up
with 35 litres. Therefore, 5 litres of

1 kg of variety A at Rs.60 is mixed with
4 kg of variety B at Rs.75 and 2 kg of

the 7 kg = 60 + (4 « 75) + (2 100) =

The mixture contains 40% milk and

milk and 7.2 litres of water.
‘Now we are replacing the mixture with
pure milk so that the amount of milk
and water in the mixture is 50% and
50%. That is we will end up with 6 litres
of milk and 6 litres of water.
Water gets reduced by 1.2 litres.
To remove 1.2 litres of water from the
original mixture containing 60% water,
‘we need to remove 1.2/0.6 litres of the
mixture = 2litres,

3 :: milk : water). When you remove x
litres from it, you will remove 0.4 x
litres of milk and 0.6 x litres of water
from it. Take option [B]. According to
this choice, x = 10. So, when one
removes, 10 litres of the mixture, one is
removing 4 litres of milk and 6 litres of
water. Therefore, there will be 20 litres
of milk and 30 litres of water in the
container, Now, when you add 10 litres
of milk, you will have 30 litres of milk
and 30 litres of water — i.e. milk and
water are in equal proportion,
Since first and second varieties are
