hey reader!! here's answer to your question. please mark it as brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of sugar to water is 2:3, then there are 24 liters of sugar and 36 liters of water initially.

The way the question is phrased, we want to replace a certain amount of the mixture with pure sugar so that the resulting mixture is 1:1.

If we remove 10 liters of mixture, we have removed 4 liters of sugar and 6 of water, leaving 50 liters of mixture — 20 liters of sugar, 30 of water. Add 10 liters of sugar, and we now have 30 liters of sugar, 30 of water, and the ratio of sugar is 1:1.
