Question 1:
In a can, there is a mixture of milk and water in the ratio 4 : 5. If it is filled with an additional 8 litres of milk the can would be full and ratio of milk and water would become 6 : 5. Find the capacity of the can?
A.40
B.44
FeedbackLet the capacity of the can be T litres. Quantity of milk in the mixture before adding milk = 4/9 (T - 8) After adding milk, quantity of milk in the mixture = 6/11 T. 6T/11 - 8 = 4/9(T - 8) 10T = 792 - 352 => T = 44.
