In a mixture of 50 liters the ratio of milk and water is 3:2 If the ratio of milk and water is to be 1:2, then the amount of water to further added is:

A
60 L
B
40 L
C
30 L
D
50 L

Solution:

Solution: $5 \to 50$

$1 \to 10$ litre

$M i l k = 30 l i t r e, w a t e r = 20 l i t r e$

$i f i t b e c o m e s M i l k : w a t e r = 1 : 2$

$w e a d d 40 L o f w a t e r$

$= 30 : 60 = 1 : 2$
