A) Rs.1625	B) Rs1525
C) Rs.1425	D) Rs.1325

Amount =Rs [ x + (27x/50)] = Rs.77x/50

=> 77X/50 = 2502.50

=>X= (2502.50 * 50)/77 = 1625

Q:

In a 40 litre mixture of alcohol & water, the ratio of alcohol and water is 5 : 3. If 20% of this mixture is taken out and the same amount of water is added then what will be the ratio of alcohol and water in final mixture?

A) 1:1	B) 2:1
C) 3:1	D) 1:2

Quantity of alohol in the mixture = 40 x 5/8 = 25 lit

Quantity of water = 40 - 25 = 15 lit

According to question,

Required ratio = $\frac{20 - (40 x \frac{20}{100} x \frac{5}{8})}{15 - (40 x \frac{20}{100} x \frac{3}{8}) + 40 x \frac{20}{100}} = \frac{20}{15 - 3 + 8} = 1 : 1$
