Question

in 60 liters of mixed milk and water ,the ratio of milk and water 2:1, how much liters of water is to be added such that the ratio of milk and water is in the ratio 8:5​

Answer 1

Answer:

150 liters

step explanation:

60 liter of mixed milk & water ratio is 2:1 so.,

let milk as 2x & water as 1x then, 2x + x= 60

=>3x = 60

=> x= 30

now the other condition is that, we have to know how much liter of water will be added that the ratio of milk & water will be 8:5 ,therefore milk is 8x & water is 5x in that mixture so, 5x = 5×30= 150 liter (because,x = 30)
