Q:
A) 5 lit | B) 10 lit |
C) 15 lit | D) 20 lit |
Answer: B) 10 lit
Explanation:
Explanation:
Number of liters of water in 150 liters of the mixture = 20% of 150 = 20/100 x 150 = 30 liters.
P liters of water added to the mixture to make water 25% of the new mixture.
Total amount of water becomes (30 + P) and total volume of mixture is (150 + P).
(30 + P) = 25/100 x (150 + P)
120 + 4P = 150 + P => P = 10 liters.
