Let the volume of the initial total mixture was V. When 10L of mixture is removed the volume becomes (V - 10). The concentration stays 4:1.

Next step, when you add 10 litres of B, the amount of A does not change.

So

Amount of A in original mix = Amount of A in final mix

C1 * V1 = C2 * V2

(4/5)*(V - 10) = (2/5)*V

1 - 10/V = 1/2

V = 20

So volume of A in initial mixture was (4/5) * 20 = 16 litres
