Question

A mixture of milk and water contains 60% milk and remaining water. how much water should be added (in percentage) in mixture to reverse the proportion of milk and water?

Answer 1

in a mixture of milk n water

milk= 60%

n remaining means water = 40%

let the ratio of milk n water is 60/40=3:2

we have to reverse the ratio means

2:3

so first we add 20% of water to balance it

n then we add extra 30% water, so that the ratio will reverse

40%+20%+30%= 90%

let calculate ratio of milk n water now

60/90= 2:3

so the answer is u will add 50% of water more to reverse this ratio.

Hope it helps
