Answer:
2:1
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of milk to water will be 2:1. The calculation goes as follows:
In the mixture of 35 litres, ratio of milk to water is 4:1. Therefore,
Milk=4x35/(4+1)=4x35/5 = 28 litres and Water=35–28 = 7 litres.
After addition of 7 litres of water to the original mixture, the new volume of the mixture = 35+7 = 42 litres and the new volume of water= 7+7=14 litres. Volume of milk remains unchanged at 42–14=28 litres.
It follows that ratio of milk to water in the new mixture=28/14=2:1.
