Question

Acid and water are mixed in the ratio 4:3 to make a liquid .On adding 10 more liters of water ,The ratio changed to 3:1. How many liters of acid and water does the liquid contain now ?​

Answer 1

Let a=acid and w=water

wa=34

3a=4w                  

Since,

w10+a=13

3w=10+a            

On multiply 1 by 3 and 2 by 4, we get 

9a=12w

40+4a=12w

Therefore,

40+4a=9a

a=8

on putting a in 1, we get 

w=6

Acid=8 L and Water=6 L

Hence, this is the answer.
