Answer 1

Answer:

14 litre.

Step-by-step explanation:

total mixture= water + milk.

Answer 2

14 litre water is mixed

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of milk= 36 litre

Rate of milk = Rs. 5.00

Total cost = Quantity of milk x Rate of milk

                 = 36 x 5

                 = Rs. 180

Now Rate after mixing water = Rs. 3.60

Quantity after mixing water =   $\dfrac{\text {Total cost }}{\text {Rate per litre}} =\dfrac{180}{3.60} =50$

Therefore

Milk + water = Mixture of milk and water

36 + water= 50

water = 50-36

water = 14 litre

Therefore 14 litre water is mixed
